Default Aftermarket engine mounts for 350Z?

Did anyone try aftermarket engine mount? I considered installing these uther...polyuth... polyeth...polyuther... oh you know what I'm talking about. How it affects performance vs comfort and noise? Thinking about buying these : http://allegro.pl/poduszki-silnika-n...023884355.html


Oh, and BTW, does anyone know if there is a Chance that I wouldn't have to get my engine removed to install these mounts?

I just bought and had installed today the Vibra-technics mounts (you can find on eBay, driftworks, or direct), see my thread below on the UK forum for a bit of info.

See this for doing the install yourself:

I wouldn't do it by myself, pay a professional

I did the Z1 mounts in mine, and did not remove my motor.

I made some mounts just like this at work, along with an aluminum transmission mount with urethane bushing
and I love them.

I've not noticed any difference in my car with the Vibratechnics (I bought the road set, not track).
Bare in mind I have whiteline diff bushings, torque solutions transmission mount and various spl and other poly bushings.

i just bought the regular generic polyurethane motor mounts on ebay when i rebuilt my engine with forged internals. I prefer to have a quiet car.......no doubt that the solid mounts will last much longer.

i should of bought this,

but i was in a rush to get my motor into my car, and i know simple regular quiet motor mounts will last 100k miles no problem.

Sigh. I would want to mount them but it's no use if I can't persuade garage shop to install them without removing the engine ($$$)

You don't remove the engine (lift it up, yes), did you look at what I posted ?
