Z1 Motorsports Poly Mounts?

New to the forums, tried a 5 min search and had no luck.

Seems to be very little information on the Z1 Motorsports poly motor mounts or transmission mounts.

Any first hand reviews or knowledge about these products would be great!

Thanks.

Came across this by hitting the New Posts button. I do have a Z1 Transmission mount installed in my car.

Here's my observations as some random dude on the internet:

Pros - It did what I had hoped and that was to firm up the shift **** from bouncing around. It's nice and solid now on hard takeoffs.

Cons - Noise. The stock bushing is soft and rubbery and does a great job insulating the cabin from NVH. It's kind of hard to explain, but with the Z1 mount a lot more drivetrain vibrations are transferred into the cabin. My wife noticed immediately and commented my car sounds "meaner". I thought I had an exhaust leak at first (I installed the mount the same time I installed a new clutch). I was actually going to remove it, but tossed out the stock one, now I'm pretty much used to it. But I did have to explain to a mechanic recently that nothing is rubbing or broke, I just have a poly trans mount, lol.

I imagine the engines mounts would have similar pros and cons, great for a track car, maybe not so much for a daily driver.
