upgraded mounts?
 
So which manufacturer has engine, tranny and diff mounts ready for upgrading for our cars?

I was looking at a company like Torque Solutions but nothing on their site, i sent them an email though.

also the Bush/lile/cusco style of "caged" engine mounts are an interesting idea, are those in production yet?

Maybe its time to start bugging energy suspension...

Was wondering about this too. From PERRIN's early analysis, the motor mounts aren't looking too impressive stock.

I agree. I also think the trans and diff mounts are particularly bad. Replacing these would make the gear box feel much more precise. Someone help us!!!

Motor mounts: STI Group N mounts fit, IIRC. Don't quote me on that though.

EDIT: Tainen says they don't fit.

Perrin has an STI motor mount set for sale on their products page; there is also a group buy going on in AU for Cusco Trans. mount & Brake Cylinder stopper; maybe you could get in contact with the guy who started the thread to get a US group buy going =P

Also, not a transmission mount, but there is the Perrin rear shifter bushing; I've had it sitting in my trunk since our cars came out, but haven't had the chance to put it in/review it yet; others seem to have positive results in shift feel; that should count for something =

Nameless tried to fit those on my car, they needed some modification in order to fit, so they were shelved short term.

As soon as I get the FR-S in that we are developing our turbo system for I can look into these, shouldnt be a big issue. If anyone has any other product ideas lmk.

We've got upgraded engine mounts. About 5 days away from testing. Group N, require a small billet adapter.

Do you have a gearbox mount/s in the pipe line?
