They do with the metal shims still in place, which mine have. I'm going to take them out this weekend as I've heard that will alleviate the problem.
The deciding factor for me was they are half the price of the DS2500, whilst still being better than OEM pads. I've been really happy with them...
Mounts and Yanoo's shifter went in!
Assume the position!
Don't have a crane and didn't dare supportthe engine buy it's sump, time for some leverage!
In with the new mount.
Now for the otherside, and a new support, wound up by a couple of nuts on a random exhaust clamp that was lying...

But also on Demon-Tweeks who might do a CS discount?
New windscreen is in and I fixed my front and rear washers! Great success.
Next job is upper engine mounts. I think having put the dogbone in has revealed just how bad the uppers are...
I'll probably be there about 7ish, don't know how long I can stay/if I'll be eating yet.

I've not got uprated engine mounts except the Poly-flex dogbone, and I get the same thing.
Some days the car just never gets to it's hot-map (Dan @ 519 recently did the thermostat) and when I'm stopped in traffic I get a huge amount of vibration.
Next things to try are cleaning the TDC (I have...
First proper update!
So I bought a cheap gear lever off eBay to fit my Yanoo kit into before removing the old one. Described as 'A+' and it looks like this on the underside...
I won't add who it was, at least until they have had the allotted time to fix the issue. What I will say is that, to...
I can see your 182 from my office, 5678. ;)
I've not seen you about Sparky, I'm from C2!
There's also a tidy Arctic 182 I've seen leaving from the back of the business park...
Seems like new thermostat has done the business.
Car runs awesome.
Next up... To change "the worst dogbone mount I have ever seen." - Dan @ 519 ;)
And new rear caliper and pads.
Thanks, I'm dead happy with it, looking forward to seeing where it goes.

The day I brought her home. After nearly a year of not having a car I was ecstatic!
