Default Transmission play?

Anyone else notice that something about the transmission needs some serious stiffening? I think the tranny and diff mounts are too soft. Shifting should have a way more positive and precise feeling to it. The throws are short and its a decent gearbox, but there is too much movement.

For example in those low speed on/off throttle situations you can hear the whole thing rocking back and forth with the load. This was also a big problem for the subaru folks, but it can definitely be fixed with some urethane bushing upgrades.

I wonder if it was done to keep NVH down..I'm sick and tired of it though.

If any vendors want to develop urethane bushings. I would be willing to help + test.

Discuss.
