    Hi all just brought a lovely s15 spec r this week and i am in love!

    There is a few things i want to get sorted!
    I will be using the car as a daily but also want it for fast road use!
    My current mount set up:
    Driftworks front solid LSD mounts
    Driftworks poly gearbox mount
    Cusco engine mounts

    The problem is the car vibrates so much and its a bit hardcore for a daily? Anyone know what mounts i should change to make it more friendly and any suggestions on what ones

    Thanks

    Is it just the engine mounts that would cause the bad vibration on idle and overrun?

    Nismo engine and box mounts are an excellent choice over stock. Much stiffer and still very streetable.

    Your diff mounts will be doing you no favours whatsoever, they will make the diff drum through the car. Change back to stock, you will notice very little difference anyway.
