Broken mounting

Due to bad workmanship from the repair shop I've admitted my car, back when I had my accident a year ago, my engine mounting gave me problems for couple of times n now, 1 more :\
They did repair it for me even though my claim-repair has expired, but I guess they did not take it seriously as it does not make any profit from fixing my problem.
1 screw was missing n as time goes by, the engine started to fall apart from it's actual position :\

The under-bonnet is so dirty n dusty due to a trip to construction site :\

This time, I've made up my mind n drove my car over to a workshop of JoshuaLim's friend, Simon. I've decided to do my gearbox swapping @ their place too :)
*JoshuaLim, my fellow friend from KDU, crime n traffic law violations*

Without any appointment, I headed over to Simon's place to fix my engine mounting.
Luckily Simon wasnt really busy @ that time. So I just gotta wait for him to deal with 2 cars b4 starting on mine.

The engine mounting is a component that holds our car's engine to the car's chassis aka bodyframe. Some cars have 3 mountings n some 4 or 5. Mine, 4 mountings :)
The mounting can only be removed after slight jacking or towing up the engine.

After jacking up the bloody 6A12, mounting was removed n big ass crack was found on the mounting =.="
That means I gotta replace it with a new mounting!! Instead paying for repair cost, I gotta pay for spare parts which was out of my expectation.

But instead of getting a brand new mounting, I was recommended to buy a reconditioned mounting. I was told that as time goes by, the rubber part of the mounting will eventually tear off, not avoidable even for the brand-new-made-in-Japan-mounting. N more importantly, reconditioned spare parts works perfectly fine. So y not :)

The middle part is the rubber I've mentioned

It took about an hour to drill the hole to perfection. Engine block's metal is so strong that even those powerful-engineered-drillers could hardly drill thru the block.

After drilling it, it's fitting time~

Some stronger n better screws was used instead of the original screws.

So that's step 1 on my car's reviving chapter.
Upcoming, I gotta change the engine oil, get new tires, overhaul, swapping a new gearbox n some car body repair & repaint.

oh!! I gotta get a new set of front speakers cuz I broke my current set, due to continuously song blasting :P
