    well then that guy is high..you can get some on w body store.com for 30+ shipping or zzp 60 + shipping

    the stock rubber motor mounts compress when the engine rocks..stock ones esp with high milage are very squishy and have too much play so poylurathane ones are more solid and help when launching your vehicle..helps esp at the track. wbodystore.coms are a not as hard as zzps FYI. people have had problems with vibration with more solid mounts, so i went with wbodystores. poly mounts= better launch, more power to the wheels pretty much,,hope this helps bud

    i had little to no vibration from the poly mounts. my vibrations were from having no balance shaft.

    Thanks man that did help alot. Had the feeling they were a little to overpriced for what they looked like an the price he was askin so i didnt buy em. Ima jus order them from intense website or go pick em up from there. What exactly do u mean by vibrations, Does thr car shake more or somethi when theyre on.

    im thinking they vibrate more or less because now the motor doesnt have any play from the poly motor mounts like they did with the stock rubber ones..idk i could be wrong though. some ppl have the issue where others do not. launch your car before and after the poly mounts are on and you wont put the stockers back on ever

    Yea i just put on a pair on my car last weekend. I did notice a difference. Seems like when u step on the gas u get a quicker response than before but i do notice that my steering wheel vibrates more. Nothin major but still noticable. Ill still keep them on tho well worth it.

    Get some from Morad most likely.

    And...if you think your engine vibrates too much and your modding it...then don't mod it.
