ps: Love my exhaust on the BRZ.
It does seem to mellow out, but it still has some vibrations. I really don't find it that annoying on this engine compared to the EJ engine with these mounts. I think the engine is much smoother and there are less things that rattle in the BRZ compared to the STI!

I daily drove the STI this way for 2 years and it wasn't that bad. But its all relative to what you like. After driving the BRZ with them for a while, I think that people will find them very appealing in the BRZ because it really makes the drivetrain solid and even more responsive.

Oh and yes, they will feel the same in an FR-S
