Replaced a motor mount, gained a nasty vibration...
So i launched way to high at the track, got some NASTY wheel hop, practically shook every bolt loose on my car and shredded the motor mount bushing on my driver side mount. I replaced the mount and now i have a terrible vibration at certain RPMs and a slight shudder when i slow down. It also seems that the whole sound of the engine got a whole lot louder. Does anyone have any ideas as to what i may have bent/broken, or somewhere to start looking? Everything else seems to be ok and the car runs fine. BTW i have an EK hatch with a built b16a and s80 transmission.
Thanks
Thanks

if you have an aftermarket mount. i think thats one of the perks of having them. since their solid mounts. tends to have a lot of vibration.

I thought about that, however its the same OEM mount that was in the car to begin with. Also, it sounds like the car is horribly loud sounding when it used to be pleasantly loud sounding. If I somehow damaged something in the engine I should definately notice it? The car preforms exactly as it used to. If something happened to a part of the exhaust, would that make the car vibrate real bad?
Thanks

well apparently my timing belt needs to be replaced... the intake cam gear slipped a notch and that was causing the engine to run rough and vibrate the hell out of my car... now i just have to figure out why my wheel shutters... that and learn how to launch properly
