![]() This is just a teaser of another Z1 Motorsports product that will be available very soon! Following the successful release of both the Solid Aluminum and Urethane Motor Mounts, Z1 Motorsports is proud to announce both a Solid Aluminum and Urethane Transmission mount. Featuring a completely 6061 Aluminum Body, both the Solid Aluminum and Urethane models are lighter than their stock replacements. Just like the Z1 Urethane Motor mounts, the Z1 Transmission mount is both rebuildable and height adjustable.![]() ![]() Tested by both SFR Enterprises (Pirelli World Challenge) and Doran Enterprises (Grand-AM) Teams, the mounts have proven to withstand the harshest enviornments and abuse that the track can only deliever. The Solid Aluminum mounts shave a total of 1.1 lbs off while the Urethane units weigh in at exactly 1 lb under stock weight. A key feature to the Z1 Motorsports design is the ability to switch from either Solid or Urethane bushing materials without requiring the replacement of the entire mount. If the Urethane is too soft for your liking or you want to transition to a 100% rigid drivetrain setup, then simply swap our the bushings. In addtion, another distinguishing feature of the Z1 Urethane Transmission mount is the ability to decrease or increase the mount's stiffness. This is done be decreasing or increasing the pre-load placed on the Energy Suspension Urethane Bushings. The 370Z has a notoriously soft transmission mount. The OEM mount can easily fail when exposed to heavy or extensive track abuse. The excess movement allowed in the driveline by the stock mount results in a loss of power delievered through to the back wheels. As with any Semi-solid or Solid Aluminum mount, additional NVH sould be expected. The severity of the additional noise or vibration will depend on the model (Solid being the worst). Prices will announced soon. Be sure to look for these at the 2012 Z Nationals! |
