I expected to see tears and cracks throughout the rubber. Unless they replaced it before I owned it at 100k miles, it could just be a unicorn. I’ve put 40k miles of E30 torque on it since I bought it.
I have to admit, you all told me to upgrade it, I was stubborn about wanting to keep a quiet cab with the OEM. This vibra-tech is AMAZING. I drove a fully mounted MS3 and my rear view mirror shook constantly and didn’t want that again.
If I didn’t just install this VT mount I wouldn’t know it’s there, but my 1-2 shifts are soooooo smooth, and the lurching from the engine in 1st gear cruising at parking lot speeds is gone.
I used to get a little resistance shifting in most gears if I was aggressive, that slop is gone.
I’d give this mount a 11/10. It has exceeded my expectations. I’d say it’s as quiet as stock but a smoother driving experience all around.
