My review of 034 motor mounts.

My review of 034 motor mounts:

Installed for 6m but I only drove maybe 3k very easy miles at most(blown stockers). So they should be barely broken in.

They look like stock. Feel like stock. They also caused me a headache. Went to install my ACF turbo kit and the turbo was touching the strut tower. I was advised to try new motor mounts. I bought the rev shift 80A and I was sure they would not fix the problem and I would just be dropping the subframe again and having to use washers as spacers as I have seen other do it(hack).

Turns out the 034 motor mounts were junk. Rev shift mounts fit great and gave me the clearance I needed for my ST ACF/VM Turbo set up. No weird vibrations or anything. Very pleased with them.

Fuck 034. I'm contacting the manufacturer. I doubt I will get any money back but it is worth a shot.

If you want a stock like motor mount, go buy stock motor mounts. The 034 are junk. Do not use. Luckily the bottom caps did not fall off like other people have experienced. or I should say did not fall off yet. I never got on the car with the 034 motor mounts because the turbos were blown so they never had to deal with the engine really trying to twist and move at wot through gear changes. Probably would have failed sooner. Anyways just stay away from them. Not many good reviews of them I have seen.


edit: Just had a revelation after taking the car for a spin. It is much easier to get in and out of gear than before. I had the 034 motor mounts and UUC SSK installed at the same time and I just assumed the SSK made the shifting kind of crappy and very notchy(which I had heard). Looks like the 034 were junk even when new. Car shifts much easier/better now. I am guessing because the engine sat lower it somehow affected my shift linkage which made me just skip 2nd gear all day every day and the other gears sucked to get into as well. It's actually fun to shift the car again.
