Default owners of j's ed.

i'm about to pick one up from evaisive. i was wondering how you guys like/dislike the product. it reduces engine flexing, but at what cost? the vibration has to go somewhere. does this thing transfer the engine's vibration to the entire car (will the entire car have a little vibration at idel)? does the ed just eliminate engine flexing through j's magic ? is it worth it? i remember the celica community used to have something similar, but in the long run it ripped a hole through the car. i doubt this is the case with j's ed.

anybody have this thing for a long time? any downside?

Product inquiry, moving to S2000 Talk.

Spend your $$ on Tires, not on the J's damper. The returns don't justify the Price. Yes, I own one.

They are of the same quality...it is just a ETD and nothing really special. They are most likely made from the same factory I think the only difference right now is that the NRG ETD bracket dosn't come with an extra bracket for the removed fuse box bracket...but a new one is in the works that will include that. The J's ETD bracket does include a bracket for the fuse box. But they both have the same design and designed to do the same thing.
