Just looking for some feedback on which engine mounts everyone suggests. I was looking at either the AWR mounts from protege garage or does any one recommend another company. Suggestions would greatly be appreciated.

I have SLS Side mount and I hate it. It clanks constantly. I had awr mounts and they rattled my dash to death. I have also had stock filled mounts.

I recently ordered medieval mounts. They are definitely the way to fly. You can't beat the price with a stick either. http://www.medievalllc.com/news.php

I just took a look at the medieval mounts and you definitely cant beat that price. Has anyone else heard of medieval mounts?

if it is a daily driver and you dont want some ANNOYING vibrating, i would get front and back CorkSport inserts.

the medieval mounts say that the mount uses an 70A hot poor urethane. this material holds like a 100 durameter, but contains anti vibration molecules that keep 85% of the harmonics in the bushing.

The stock motor mounts are inadequate for even a stock car. The Medieval mounts will tighten up your engine from flopping around and reduce torque steer and wheel hop. They are the ultimate stability for your engine/trans. These are a direct bolt in replacement mount. Constructed with a steel frame with steel inserts and custom polyurethane bushings.

I use a custom made bushing that has at least 30% more urethane than leading competitors and is a hot poor 70A urethane. This material is superior to the standard cold poor because it last longer and transfers less engine vibration. Now, one must understand that by going from a stock mount to a more ridged mount you will increase vibration. I feel my mounts offer the least amount of vibration transfer while still holding the engine secure.

I've got SLS front, and AWR rear. I believe SLS is cheaper.

I had heard that also and went to look on their website and couldnt find them, even though under the "other" section it includes the engine mounts... none to be found... im i just not looking right?

I have mounts from a website I cannot mention. I like them very much. They are a softer durameter than others but have a solid cnc machined housing that helps them to work as well as a stiffer durameter mount. Vibration isnt too bad at all. I used to have hasport motor mounts when I had my honda. Very high quality mount. I would rate the brand I have up there with hasport mounts.
