Thumbs up J's Racing Torque Damper...anybody Got One?

I just thought this would be a neat little mod to do along with the matching heat shield that goes along with it. Does anybody have one installed and do you find it usefull?? Or just in general...What do ya think about this?

yes,

I found it improved the gear change smoothness...though you soon get used to the effect...like every other improvement, only notice when it's gone.

I do seem to rember hearing that a while back but Bullettproof's site this is for LHD fitment so I dont know where the problem would be. I think you could only get a JDM version then.

For some reason, I seem to remember that it bolted to J's upper suspension cross-bar (like the base on the bar was designed to accept the damper).

Ok to clarify,
1. If you plan on using a STB, it'll only works with the J's racing STB unless you design your own mount.
2. Can work on it's own with no issues if you don't use any STB.
3. You can buy a predrilled heatshield or drill your own with either of the 2 above choices.

Thank you! I just sent you an e-mail through Bulletproof. You can disreguard it since this has pretty much answered my question.
