Hey mate. I have done this conversion and yes, the mounts are different. We cut them out of the doner car and welded them into my wagon. Wasn't that hard just have to make sure you take measurements off the doner car before cutting them out! Seems obvious but i have heard stories. Good luck to your mate. Best thing I ever did!

That's because I do generally make sense, it's just unfortunate that most of the time folk just don't understand

I've done this conversion and yes the drivers side mount needs to be moved / adapted forward by about 15-25mm. Pays to measure it up. I cut off the RD mount and bought a brand new genuine nissan td42t mount from nissbits. Had that professionally welded on (better than the factory welding). Others simply make up a steel plate adapter and leave the RD28 mount in place.

Passenger side needs no modification.
