Rear Shifter/Transmission Mount Insert Bushings - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Anyone here had these bushings replaced? I have been seeing reviews all over the place about the effectiveness of these bushings, separately and together. Who has experience with these and what are your thoughts?

I have these bushings in my car. My recommendation: go all or nothing, as in engine, transmission, and rear diff.

Only swapping out bushings/mounts on one of those three is going to result in a horrible nhv. Swapping all three creates a little nvh, but much less then just one or two.

Interesting. Thanks for your feedback. Has anyone experienced what viru5 is saying?

I've driven his car and compared to mine. I agree with what he is saying.

Do you have only the transmission bushings?

I have nothing.

Oh, I forgot to mention, get an engine tune while you are at it to raise your idle. 600 rpm feels like a massage chair and you sound funny when you talk

I'm going to do it all in one shot while the bottom of the car is apart. UEL, over pipe, front pipe, some combination of driveline bushings, tune.
