Default weapon r engine damper?

Anyone use this, is it any good?? Seen it on ebay 130 bucks with shipping. Looks just about as good as the stillen one.

130..... You can get a stillen one for alot cheaper and you know its good... Stillen backs their products 100%. You just have to work with them on the price.

I think you really need one. I have the Stillen. The motor torques so bad it has to help. I feel a little more vibration with it but, it stops motor TQ almost to 0.

The thing about weapon R I believe it is more generic, I believe they built the weapen R dampener to work with a lot of cars including the 350Z.

Another thing you might want to reasearch on is the area where the weapon R dampener is installed at. I believe with weapon R, it's against the firewall. Which I believe it's a harder install. The stillen install is a bit tricky as well, but at least it is more reachable since it is near the passenger side struts bar.

As you can tell, I'm going with the Stillen.

I believe the only good thing I heard about the Weapon R is that the dampener piston is a bit better then the stillen.

Hope this helps. Anyone correct me if I'm wrong, please.

thanks for the info, yeah i just never seen this damper before so just wondering about the quality. I did notice that a lot of their kits mount on the firewall, but i thought that was because most of their kits were for front wheel drive cars. Anyways thanks, i have the plenum spacer and when the engine torques it starts to rub a little so I thought i would get one.
