Shims are placed behind buffers to space them closer to the top engine mount.
Fitting the correct combination of shims means, as the engine moves under acceleration / engine braking the top mount can come into contact with the buffers sooner and reduce any excess movement.
These can be used with OE std buffers or either of our Fast Road or GrpN Style replacements.
EMB205-2 – Group N Top Engine Mount – a part of our complete Group N (Grp.N) Engine Mounting Kit that has been designed to substantially reduce engine movement by incorporating up-rated and stiffened rubber components. The kit is ideally used for rallying, racing, enhanced engine conversions and modifications.
Note: The top mount comes with a pair of EMB205-5 top mount buffers.

EMB205-9 – Our 205 Gti Grp.N engine mounting kit has been one of our main sellers for over 10 years. It is perfect for track orientated cars but on the firm side for road cars.
We have now developed our fast road set-up. A great upgrade for people looking to tighten up the engine movement but without going to the extreme of the Grp.N set-up.
The mounts use the same proven design as our Grp.N set-up but with a softer grade of rubber to aid compliance.
Available for: 205 1.6/1.9 GTI, 205 XS (please note when adding products to cart)
This is the power steering cooling loop pipe which runs under the car on 205 GTI models equipped with PAS. The originals are prone to rust due to their location.
Using an original we have re-manufactured them using a CNC tube bender, then a custom jig has been made to manipulate the final bend. Using CNC technology ensures their complicated shape is repeatedly replicated accurately.
