Just installed not 10 minutes ago. The instructions could have been a bit more detailed, but if you're doing this, you should have at least some mechanical expertise. Removing the mounts from the car was not difficult, Removing the bushings from the mounts was the time consuming part, and would have been made so much easier with a press, or some special fittings pieces in my vice. I found that the interior does rattle and it sounds like I have a new exhaust of some kind, but only at about 1000 & 1200 RPM, and after that I have the performance that I was expecting, no more movement and shuddering from the engine and transmission during hard shifting, or from a first gear start. I enjoy these, But they do seem to be a little hard. I hope they wear in slightly.
93 NA 5SFE - Super stiff! I don't really like them, rather uncomfortable. Would recommend these for a track, not for the road though. Perhaps it's better with the 3SGTE.
Product quality is great: I've put over 60,000 km and 4 yeras on these mounts. However the vibration transmitted to cockpit became just way too much. Everything in the car would rattle - the hood and headlights vibrated visibly. I've since gone back to OEM rubber mounts - Much nicer. Shifting is improved over the poly mounts. Much more forgiving. In summary - Great quality product. But for a daily driven car - massively overkill and no noticable improvement in shifting compared to OEM rubber in my opinion to justify it.
I mounted those mounts last summer. The vibrations became unbearable, but I may have noticed slight improvements of the shifting. I will be replacing those mounts ASAP. However, if you are racing, or don't mind the rattling of your interior, go for it!
