Urethane Transmission Mount

theDreamer · 01-28-2010, 05:16 PM

Would you be interested in a urethane transmission mount?

Z1Performance has finished it, but has found to little support, about 20 people are needed for them to pump this out.

Details:
~150USD for comfort version*
~185USD for race version*
~Images
~Previous thread

*Estimated prices from previous thread

I will make a public poll, and if you vote yes please reply with which version you would be interested in and I will update the list. If no one is interested or it fails, sorry but they will not build this without enough interest.

Can someone recap to me what the difference is between comfort and race?

g96818 · 01-28-2010, 06:23 PM

i'm interested, but what's the real difference between comfort and race? if confort is kinda like stock then i'll go with race.

i assume race has more vibrations transferred to the cabin, but also more responsive

I'd be all over this myself but unfortunately until my Z comes in I won't be in the market, so I'm not voting, yet...

the blog says automatic?! is the mount the same for the 6mt as well?

theDreamer · 01-28-2010, 09:17 PM

The one I know of is only for the manual, not sure about the blog.

6spd · 01-28-2010, 10:27 PM

why not just go to home depot, buy urethane, and fill the stock mount with it? real common and much cheaper. seems this one would only be worth it if it is far superior to stock. but im still interested.

i think the mount replaces the oem insert with urethane, i don't think you can just fill it. anyone got stock pics of the mount?

i think would you buy a poly tranny mount would be a better question weeds out the yeah i'm interested but i don't have money guys like myself (too many spring purchases already)

theDreamer · 01-29-2010, 07:54 AM

Glad to see 6 people already voting yes, I know if I can get a few more people here they might be for it and get us closer to getting this.

the blog makes no mention of auto's, as I've never looked into them. Not sure how this would even benefit an automatic since those shift for you. The point of these are to promote much cleaner, crisper, and more direct shifts gear to gear with the manual lever

NYBladeZ · 01-29-2010, 11:37 AM

We got 8, how about a group buy?

RCZ · 01-29-2010, 11:56 AM

I'd like one, but its harder to justify at that price...

i assume race has more vibrations transferred to the cabin, but also more responsive

both are significantly more rigid than stock

The comfort version is approximately 40% stiffer than stock, the race is just shy of 100% stiffer than stock

We recommend the race for those guys who's car will do more track than street. The comfort is really the best overall solution for everyone else.

“The Z1 Auto transmission mount dramatically improved
shift engagement...", now that i look at it, its not Z1 - auto transmission mount, its Z1 Auto - transmission mount. sorry!
