I'm considering of changing my transmission mounts but I would use the Z1 polyurethane one.

For one there's are a lot of plastics/ foams, heat shields that vibrate in the trunk after I switched to coilovers, had to use dynamat to cover all my trunk, heat shield, license plate bracket, stuffed the rear bumper foams with rug towels from vibrating, reinforce my exhaust hangers and bushing.

The price we pay for upgrading our suspension system.

But the car handles so good on the twisties.

i will update this page as what i tried or did to fix this problem..
i have a pair of whiteline poly diff bushings at home but then after i purchase all the other spl solid bushing and motor/trans mounts.. i might as well go all out right? haha so i ended up with the spl solid diff bushings ..
dam and thats just from coilovers? i cant wait to put mine on!

yea i no know lol functional parts aint cheap .. u should see the labor on these bushings.. it cost more than the parts itself lol

I have whitelines sways bars too.. You said it right labor cost is a killer that is why I invested the money instead in buying quality tools little by little and do the job myself or ask fellow members to help for a cost of a pizza and beer!

IMO suspension upgrades and quality tires are worth the investment rather than doing any engine hp gains. Your in the right direction If you do plan to track your Z.
