Ok Before criticizing me Im'm Not a Mechanic but know a few things I did the whole swap in my garage with only hand tools.

My ej1 when I bought it had a d15b7 and was Dead so I bought a D16y8. I installed the motor threw the bottom and have every thing fit except the T. Bracket that is not aligned it's just off a few centimeters. I have tried everything to make it align but nothing. Any Ideas or tips...

Which bracket? Auto or manual? As far as I know the mounts should be the same.

Here's a stupid question; is the transmission manual or automatic?

manual transmission? brackets from either an auto or manual are the same like grumblemarc said.

silly question, but is the motor aligned properly? tranny mount and engine side mount bolted down?

after looking at the picture it looks like the motor needs to be pushed back to the rear?

'96 - '00 T brackets aren't the same as '92 - '95 T brackets and don't work.

Arg. Then I was misinformed. So that begs the question; What happened to the bracket from the D15? Can you use it?

I didn't even think of that I compared brackets from d15 and d16.
I'm an idiot.
