After replacing the clutch and flywheel it was clear how soft the original engine mounts are - 22 years old!!

Would I be better replacing them with standard ones or the sti hardened versions?

I drive the car in town and on backroads only a handful of days a month but don’t want to end up with lots of extra vibration if they are too hard.


Thanks for any advice

I've got hardrace engine mounts and beatrush gearbox pitch mount noticed no extra vibration. pitch mount mod is very good on newage's

 

The hardened ones might give a slight increase in NVH but really nothing crazy. I'd say go for it unless you're determined to keep it as smooth as possible.

 

The STI Group N ones are perfect upgrade without any major NVH for road car, smilar to the Hardrace also in fairness.

ive the grp n for engine & pitch mounts, then a hardrace gearbox mount

 

Solid mounts everywhere in one of mine the only one that was unbearable was the dog bone with straight cut gears in the box.
