Here you go (no affiliation): https://www.paragon-products.com/Por...375.042.04.htm

Vertex and 944online also likely have options for you, if you want to explore those vendors. I don't know what shipping is to Argentina but it sounds like it will be worth it.

Cheers

OP has an old 924 which uses a completely different engine mount than the 944 series; even the crossmember is different.

There is an aftermarket option available:

@V2Rocket : Whoops! Apologies OP. I got to that link by following things from the 924 section of Paragon and didn't notice that it was only for the 924S (which may still be incorrect, I have next to no knowledge about this series of cars).

Good luck

I have these on my 924 Turbo. They are much stiffer than stock mounts and I have eventually come to hate them. I am looking at modifying new mounts from another car.

Those mounts have terrible NVH. I tried them on my turbo about 4 years ago and took them out after 1000km. They made my car unpleasant to drive. Keep a look out on eBay you sometimes see rebuilt mounts.
