Here's the drivers side mount we had made for rota92's hatch.



Heres the Tranny mount.




Yep you don't want the engine wasting movement.

just a little update. the car still vibrates on idle, actually pretty similar to before on the steady rpm driving and feels very solid on launching/shifting. i went to a big event at my local strip and was cutting 1.8 60' times on 22" slicks with no traction bars and the mount helped out tremendously!! i was getting more and more into speed shift mode by the end of the day and on the launch and the shifts the engine movement was non existant. i could feel a very direct translation from what the tires were doing.

oh and the rubbing my engine used to do on my hood has all but been eliminated since the installtion of this mount as well. i previously had a few spots where my carbon hood had started drooping and was rubbing on my valve cover, to the point it had a 1" long rub/wear mark on the hoods webbing where the contact was being made (also rubbed the paint off my valve cover). i recently installed a new freshly painted valve cover and after my 50 mile round trip and 5 hard passes down the track, i am showing no signs of rubbing due to movement, i still have contact but its yet to rub any paint off the cover.

just wanted to let everyone know my latest testing results, and not a single sign of fatigue, wear, cracking or imminent failure
