Hello my friends first time posting not sure if in the right thread but i cant seem to find any info on this specific part.

i got a 16 gt and already have the corsa extreme and intake with bama blah blah blah.....:focus:

i just got my kooks long tubes in and want to swap out the drive shaft and motor mounts while i am in the area
drive shaft will be the TDS aluminum but haven't decided on motor mounts
the reason i want to swap is because i have been looking into mt82 clunky/notchy shifts and motor mounts have been said to help remedy the problem

i have seen steeda mounts and look like decent mounts with interchangeable bushings and adjustable height

then i stumbled across these solid mounts from watson racing

any opinions or experience on any or others?

I just installed BMR motors and a Boomba solid transmission mount. With those and my MGW, shifting is extremely smooth. Actually one of the smoothest shifting cars that I have ever driven. I also installed a Mcleod RXT. Truely an amazing clutch.

For some reason these mt82s just seem lazy on stock shifts i know they are stout and all but maybe its just me

i look into the bmrs thanks for the quick response the mgw will defiantly be on my to do list heard nothing but great things about them

It must be the boomba trans mount giving me the NVH lol. I don't mind, it is fun.

Well damn!!! So with a Roush S/C these mounts will let me be able to use my strut tower brace? :shrug:

Not sure man, these mounts came stock with the 3.2L Kenne Bell. It's required to clear the stock hood. If you're running the stock motor mounts now, in I'm sure it's a possibility

Which motor mounts do you have? I just had JPC install the Prothane billet/polyurethane motor mounts in conjunction with my header install. So your saying you don't have any added NVH from the new mounts?
