Anyone have a 9th Generation 'rolla that needed the Motor Mounts replaced? If so did you go OEM or is there something better in aftermarket? Also can you quote some $$$ on labor and material for the Forum? Thanks in advance...

you can always get the MMI. they really help with wheel hop

check out monkeywrenchracing.com, they have the Energy Suspension motor mount inserts for about 30 bucks. they are just inserts for the front and rear mounts and they help reduce engine movement on hard acceleration and wheel hop.

yup, i just got mine in the mail yesterday, gonna be installing them later when I get my JP header sometime next week.

have fun with that rear mount man. haha. ex[ect some bloody fingers. but i got mine right before i put the s/c on and i love them. the vibration at idle sucks but you will get used to it

TrdSpeed140 · 12-08-2009, 08:06 PM

hell, with the shitty header i got on it now, I can feel vibrations through the floor, steering wheel and pedals at idle since the header is angled so the cat converter is vibrating against my front sway bar/power steering lines! and, the midpipe to header flange leaks like a mofo on top of that! lol, i can't wait to get my JP one.

GTurner598 · 12-08-2009, 08:08 PM

i wish i got the jp but i got a crazy good deal on a dc header and i just couldnt pass it up. But now that im boosted, i wanna invest in the ppe supercharger header!

TrdSpeed140 · 12-08-2009, 08:12 PM

I wish I was boosted! but I can't spend the kind of money necessary until after college. maybe then I can make myself a sick Rotrex setup! one can dream, haha

there is a guy in Mass that has a rotorex that is parting out.

TrdSpeed140 · 12-09-2009, 11:19 PM
