If you end up going that route you shouldnt have to worry about them ever tearing again.
So... Getting the Momentums tomorrow-ish
TPs for it tomorrow-ish

Z1 urethane motor mounts (held off on trans)
Rear camber arms and tow bolts (sick and tired of tire changes)
Z1 brake booster hose to match my other Z1 blue hoses
eBay'd the 2 radiator hoses


And I just didn't like Z1's price on a PS cooler... For $200, I can hook up my spare 19 row, and it'd be just as cost effective, lol.

Yea, you do not want stiffer motor mounts or your car will vibrate...it sux, my brother did that to his audi and i didn't like and good luch trying to explain that to a potential buyer

I had HFCs for like 5000 miles, then TPs then stock cats, and now back to TPs

The dealer should quote you 30/45minutes @ hourly shop rate for changing the transmission mount when you do decide to go that route.

I hopefully won't pay anything at my local shop ;)

Honestly, the trans mount anyone could do at home with basic stuff. You need socket wrenches, a way to lift the car a little, and an extra bottle jack for the trans itself. You basically hold up the rear of the transmission with the bottle jack (not raise it, just hold it in place), and then the support bracket that usually holds it up (with the mount you're replacing) just unbolts from the bottom of the car, swap the mounts, put the support bracket back in, and you're done. There's like 4 bolts involved all total.
