Question TOP MOUNTS FOR FRONT SUSPENSION

Can anyone recommend any alternatives to the top mounts. One of mine is cracking and I guess should be replaced but what with.
Can't say I fancy the bill for the adjustable pillow ball type.

The noise and vibration are also pretty bad with pillowball types. I'd just go for regular ones.

Depending on what you have at the moment, STi top mounts may be an option.

I'd agree with Andrew.

I have recently gone for STI top mounts all round. (upgraded from UK ones) I'm very pleased with them. They are noticably firmer than the UK ones (maybe mine were dead) but the car is much more planted on the road.

They weren't too expensive either - I imported them from Japan (don't remember the company ), and got them for about 1/2 the price of GGR racing etc.
