Well to anyone that says is vibrates to much....it doesnt.

I installed the 95 duro front mount and sure at idle it vibrates a little bit but not even enuf to rattle the change in the cup holder, and as soon as u touch the gas it stops. While driving there are no extra vibrations at all!

Also the car feels just like stock to drive until you try and shift like an asshole and then you see why the awr mount is in there :D


All in all, get the awr front motor mount, you wont regret it :)

you sure it wasn't a 70? I have a 70 in and it vibrates enough to be noticeable, but not enough to rattle change...

I didn't think the rattle was that bad. I have front and rear installed. I'm definitely used to it now.

I have front and rear AWR's and you can watch my outside mirrors vibrate at a light.

Bill,
What tool did you use to remove the stock motor mount inserts from the metal bracket on the passenger side. That 1 is giving me a hard time.

When I had my OBX header on, My car would vibrate really bad after I installed the motor mount, but when I put the turbo in, it all quieted down. Virtually no vibration now.

I have front and rear (you notice the big difference when you replace the (probably) broken) mount.

The vibes have settled somewhat - but i have also spent a lot of time chasing buzzes and rattles(which bother me probably more than other people).

It is all-in-all a good mod for the wheelhop issue. If i didn't have wheelhop - i would not have done upgraded mounts. Quiet is Good.

You don't remove them. You insert the inserts into the side mounts and then use zip-ties to hold them in place.

Front & rear are complete motormounts.

I thought this too. Then my other mounts wore out and I began to feel the engine rocking around again.

With front & rear 70's, at idle, my front license plate rattled more from those mounts than my trunk ever did with 2x12's.

It's not a Harley, and I sit in traffic a lot, so back to stock I went and never looked back.

My solution to wheel-hop? SLOW DOWN!

Okay, are you all talking about the problem I'm having with my '02 P5 and that's when I'm just starting out in first and if I am giving it a certain amount of gas to clutch the passenger side makes a clunk clunk clunk noise, is that a mount of some sort? if not sorry to post in this thread

Yes, when you're in first and the car feels like it's jerking back and forth (can be quite violently).

If you stand at the front of the car and look down you will find it.

The attached picture is taken from the right side of the car. The rear mount is on the left and the front mount is on the right in this picture.

SWEET!(dance) (cool). I read a lot of people mention about dashes vibrate like crazy, is that true? If yes, Did you have to do any modifying for that?
