I have a 5AT G35 and I want to get a tranny mount. My transmission is having a lot of movement between accelerations and during decelerations. I can also feel the transmission movement when my car is shifting. I have inspected my engine mounts and they are very solid.

At first I thought the problem was from poor transmission fluid, so I changed it a few times to get the auto tranny fluid clean. But that did not help with my rough shifting problem. Then I realize that it's my transmission mount. It is not broken, just worn at about 65000 miles.

What are my options for transmission mount? I contacted Z1 and they don't sell them with no ETA. There is Momentum Performance, but their mounts may be too hardcore and availability is questionable.

I wouldn't consider Megan because they come with the motor mounts, which I don't need. Avid Racing is also of questionable quality.

What are my options? I know this is a 350Z forum, but I also own a G35 and people here are more informed when it comes to the VQ35.

 

..... it the same engine..... and there the same,except one is a lil bit longer...

 

I would either get the Avid mount or Megan. My car is probably getting Megan mounts, not all Megan products are crap.

 

Megan is pretty good for the most part. But I only need the transmission mounts.

I looked at the Avid. Many people seem to have an issue with their quality. Waiting for a reply from Momentum and its resller. I can live with a solid transmission mount if a quality urethane one is hardly available and if it solves my transmission movement problem.

I could always goto Rockauto for a $60 OEM replacement, but I want the precise and rock solid shift action provided by hard mounts.

 

let us know how it goes,

 

What is a 5mt?

 

5mt is a typo for 5at.

Sorry that you didn't get it, since you ask.

 

I got it and am just messing with you.

look up a company called revshift....they make a motor mount kit that is a third of the price of the megan kit. and you can have them custom make you a trans mount. Im gonna have them make one for my G coupe.

How is your trans mount holding up?

I ordered the Forged solid motor mounts and now want to firm up the trans as well.
