Engine mounts...

[KielT]

Mine are pretty shagged, I've already done the lower dogbone to powerflex, and want to do he others because there's stil quite abit if movement. So my question is do I go for standard ones again or the updated vibratecnics ones?? I will be doing the odd track day a month aswell.

Get the best one's you can if your going to be doing a trackday a month

The Vibratec ones are too harsh on a road car imo. Only needed for ITB'd/RS2'd/TC'd applications. Brand new OEM mounts and a powerflex dogbone should do the trick.

Yup. I think KTEC sell the 3 important ones. Comes to around £120 IIRC.

How harsh are the vibratechnics ones? Just I don't wanna splash out for the OEM ones for the problem to come back again?lol

 

[Struggler]

both mine and my mates cars have the vibratechnics ones, i dont find them at all "too harsh for road"

i spose its how comfortable you want your car to be! id personally go for the good ones if youre going to track your car 12 times a year, otherwise youll just put more stress on your gear linkage/exhaust flexi etc!

ive also got the vibratechnics mounts/powerflex dogbone and my cars never seen a track. absolutely fine for road use when theyve got a couple of k on them, a little vibration on idle but its worth it for how much it tightens up the front end.

Vibratechnics are fine for road use once they settle in..

Ive got solids. You can drive my car and see what you think? All though mine will seem alot harsher than they are.

As for vibrations they rarely vibrate the interior in mine. Can easily fit them in a few hours!

 

[KielT]

Yeah if you don't mind mate? And plus to get to see what the spax like before I buy some lol are you selling yours then as your breaking your car?

 

[dmallett]

Unfortunately mate my cars not drivable now, got abit excited yesti and pulled it apart lol.

Spax are already sold. I really am useless, though they wouldn't fit your car i dont think.

 

[KielT]

Nah they wouldn't I'll be buying a new set, had bad experiences with second hand suspension, no offence mate. What about your mounts?

 

[KielT]

Im selling some williams wheels with the federals on if you want them? I really like them personally and think for the money you cant get better! Brilliant on track or road.

 

[KielT]
