OEM vs Cusco Engine Mounts



So in less than a week I installed and removed the CUSCO engine mounts. While they felt good, they just transferred way too much noise and vibrations to the chassis for my liking. So....Now I am back to the OEM mounts, with the Torque Solutions transmission insert.

I would only recommend the CUSCO mounts if you race/drift/like loud vibrating cars. I should have gotten the STI ones...

Thanks,
ET

Used Sway Bars

Couldn't pass up this setup of used Whiteline sway bars.



Front: 22mm
Rear: 18mm

I am very curious to see how my car feels after putting these on. Could this be the "perfect" setup for what I want??? Time will tell! After putting these on, I should know if it's time to go back to coilovers or not...

Current Setup:

Wheels: 17x9 Konig Hypergrams
Tires: 255/40R-17 FALKEN AZENIS RT615K+
Springs: Swift Spec R
Shocks: 2017 OEM
Front Camber Bolts
Rear Toe Arms

I did some research on the mounts and apparently the Perrin ones are like a happy medium. Firmer than STI, not as firm as Cusco

The rear has room. The front has like 1-2mm clearance but ran without spacers until a week or two ago. Now have 3mm up front.
