I ended up getting a screaming deal on a used TRZ from mono's partout. I'll be honest and say it vibrates. Knowing what it is, it doesn't bother me because I know what is causing it. Had the car come like this from the factory.... I'd have been concerned.

There are some weired harmonics that get set up at different RPM's so it causes more noise and is somewhat harsh. Going from a stock RMM to a dogbone was quite a change.

This mount was well used so I know it is already broken in. I assume that once the weather warms up the bushing will soften slightly but I don't really expect it to change much.

All of that said, I'd buy a dogbone in a heartbeat again. Takes all of ten minutes to install. Hardest part was getting my fat ass out of the chair and putting pants on to go do it.

Merry Christmas to everyone, especially @jbarone for answering my questions, @Monotonous ONE for hooking me up with a screaming deal and @Haltech for maintaining the best speed forum available.

I just put a JBR 80 billet on today. Starter barely disengaged the flywheel before I noticed the vibes. Having said that it don't seem overwhelming. Makes a huuuuuuuuge difference on the feel of the car. If it quiets down a little more great. Damn, I said I wasn't gonna mod this thing but here I go. I think wifey has a CS SRI under the tree!

You're really gonna love it and in a few hundred miles you won't even feel much anymore.

Thanks,

I Just got my jbr 80 as well. Can't wait to install it and ditch the CS Rmm inserts.

It took me longer to go get the beer. It is as easy as it gets.

Haha, works been too busy for me to pull it in and throw it on the lift. So if it stops being shitty out, I'll do it in the driveway. (hate working on the ground, but if I have to I will).

BTW, the motor mount looks awesome! Thanks
