I have these in my car with the 'Race' (black) bushings... they feel alright.. there is obviously increased vibration with these, and there will be even with the softest durometer they offer... but thats the trade-off... if you want to have a more solidly mounted engine. it all depends on if you want your car to be nice and soft feeling, or do you want more of a 'track' feeling... i'm happy with mine. the vibration isn't like "jarring", but the mirrors vibrate a little bit more now at idle than they used to.

I'm happy with them though... the only thing i noticed, is that after install, my exhaust sat about 1/4" or so farther forward (which to me says the motor sits a touch more forward), and it caused the left rear exhaust tube after the split to lightly touch a part on the frame... but that was easily fixed.

Good luck with them!

thanks for the replies guys, so you guys are saying that it does replace the OEM part shown here?

you will lose the OEM motor mount rubbers AND the aluminium brackets what are on the engine.
