True...but TIC/MAW always has good shit. Though like I said, I went Group-N because it was still rubber and didn't change NVH except start-up. I needed new mounts anyway and it was a cheap solution that provided the least cons for me.

Regardless of user experience I would always prefer tailor-made rather than adapted parts. While the use of a spacer may not be entirely deleterious to the design/use of the part, it says something to me.

How much do these run? Are they available right this second, because my car is technically in a perfect situation to get these on since it's just in pieces waiting for my damn turbo to arrive in the mail...

do they cause unbearable vibrations in the cockpit that will loosen the already loosened car?

We are gonna install these on the BRZ at the same time as the turbo, already noticed a lot more engine movement on the dyno after installing stiffer tranny mount.

Without having them on the car it will be hard to say how bad NVH will increase, but you can be sure it will increase.

Which shift mount are you using?

When you say movement what do you mean?

Cusco. It's just a normal lateral engine movement caused by sudden change in rotational force of the flywheel/drive line but it's exaggerated now since the engine is still soft oem mounts and transmission is stiffer.

This question is directed to Jeff:

With Group-N mounts on a WRX or STI, most notice after a few hundred miles that the mounts "break in" and the vibration at idle is NO where near as bad as it was initially. My question is.....do you think this ENERGY bushing you use, ..will "break in" and mellow out some of the initial vibration?

ps: Love my exhaust on the BRZ.

And I hope Jeff answers, but I will add what I can:

I have urethane motor mounts on other cars, and yes, there is some break in over time. Not alot, not like rubber mounts.

But alot more time, not two weeks lor just a few hundred miles ilke rubber. Seems heat is key for the breakin, normal use will do it, in time.
