With a new stronger centre I'm assuming?Correct. It probably looks pretty similar to the one in your car Steve. Its a Nizpro plate. I doubt I would be able to make one for the price Simon charges.

discostig Manual mode ________________________ All day, erryday Donating Members 13,798 Member For: 16y 4m 25d Gender: Male Location: Probably above atmospheric pressure Posted 20/01/14 01:25 PM Share Posted 20/01/14 01:25 PM (edited) Paging Ralph Wiggum...think he found them to be waaaaaaaaaaaay too solid and caused excessive NVH issues?Just read more on the ad and he talks them up for this actually:An extensive development program has made our Technico Torque Master Engine Mounts the smoothest and toughest poly bushed engine mounts available. Although they are about 60% stiffer than stock, they have been harmonically tuned to minimize vibration at idle and low engine speeds, yet are rated to withstand well over 1500 Nm of torque (over a 1000 BHP).These billet alloy, poly bushed engine mounts control torque by stiffening up the engine, constraining both its lift and movement. This increases the transmission of power to the rear wheels. It also significantly improves handling, because less movement of the engine means less weight shift and transfer. Control without the harness normally associated with stiff mounts. Edited 20/01/14 01:27 PM by -SteveR- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is the same combo I'd have. Glad I checked with him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They do transform the car. I actually had to reduce the rebound damping on my shock as the engine is tied in so well is doesn't act act a pendulum/counter weight moving side to side and up and down due independently to the chassis.In my case the combo of rattly forgies and near solid mounts was more than I could handle day to day. The transition from idle to around 1200 was the worst. I found and if i bumped the idle up to around 970 the vibes stopped at idle and the transitional vibration was greatly reduced.Unfortunately at that rpm point my old forgies liked to play their song loud and proud so in time it was more than I could handle.In a auto car or a car that gets tracked hard I would run them again in a heartbeat. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
