Why? stock ones do just fine and you gain nothing with aftermarket ones....if you want to make a difference get an aftermarket trans mount

I put them in a car. Fitment was great and vibration was barely noticeable. The stock ones fail which made the replacement necessary. I did the trans mount as well. Frees up quite a bit of space in that area as well. For anyone that has ever had to go wrenching around in there its a big plus.

They may look fine, I thought the ones I replaced were fine. I forget which side but it failed from expansion not compression. Mounts had 52K on them. Trans mount felt fine to but upon up close inspection was failed. Lots of track days and drifting on them though.

Mine must be faulty or something. I went to the dyno the other day and my motor moved quite a bit. I also did pick up a trans mount while I was at it

I got them on my Z when I rebuilt the engine recently. Mine has done 400kms so far. There's a slight noticeable vibration but then I am also running Torque Solutions transmission mount.

On idle, you could tell there's a subtle vibration in the cabin but it's not bothersome or annoying at all. Easy to get used to after sitting in the car for a minute or 2.

IMO the Z1 motor mount is a great product. Very well made pieces and they work great. THere's very less flex on the engine and works just as good as my previous Forged Perf. solid mounts which caused really harsh vibrations. Comparably, the Z1 causes way less NVH than the solids. It's worth the $$$'s spent.

Here they are when I opened the box

shout out to Coz from ConceptZ. He shipped these bad boys, along with the rest of my stuff across the globe in less than a week.
