Now, while ACTUALLY driving, you feel the snap of everything working and really being bolted to the chassis and bolted to the driver. There is less of a lag from pedal down to car moving forward.
I didn't even notice a vibration difference at a stoplight, but then again maybe I wouldn't notice, I don't know. I'm rarely at a stop and in-gear, either. The rest is basically the same as I felt - you're definitely more-connected. I'd do the trans mount at the same time as well, it's all good stuff, and the trans mount can be done with jacks+jackstands and a couple wrenches, it's not hard at all.

I'm interested in both mm and trans mount. I had mm on my b15 spec v and it created VERY noticeable increase in nvh. Wife hated it but it was a dramatic improvement in feel.

Is the consensus that the z1 mm/trans mount don't noticeably increase vibrations etc?

If you have an auto, and you come to a stoplight in drive. You will feel it, if you have a manual, I DOUBT you'd feel any NVH difference, ever

I'm sold! Lol. I'm talking to the wife about them now and she just said she's still skeptical. That means in a few weeks I'll have her convinced.

If it makes you feel better, I also had motor mounts on my b15 spec v from Travis (FI racing) that were some type of solid material. Those were super rough. I had solid mounts on my 350z and it was nothing like the sentra. It was noticeable, mostly due to the solid transmission mount, but wasn't bad at all. It was mostly noise more than vibration.

These shouldn't be bad from my experience with solid in the 350 and from what these guys are saying. I plan on getting these for my 370 in the near future.
