so how did it turn out?

 

I was waiting for that other guys damper to get finished, but after seeing the proto-types and his estimated cost ($165) i have order the northstar one. I really wanted a shock style ingalls stiffy type damper but none are available so this will have to do.

 

omg 165$ are you kidding? wow for that price range id go with the stiffer motor mounts. the northstar works just fine too.

 

Wow, I thought he was joking when he said 165

 

I thought he was joking also. Since he hasn't confirmed prices one way or the other I'm going to try not to jump to any conclusions. His (robs) brackets *look* like they could accomodate that engalls stiffy....don't they?

You're right though, for the money the solid motor mounts probably would be the way to go once getting into that price range.

 

The solid mounts aren't too bad anyway. I have had them for like two or maybe three weeks and I really enjoy it. It is mild unless you are actually starting the car. The car will shake quite a bit as it starts to turn over. The only other time you really feel a difference is when the car is under heavy load(WOT) it is quite a bit louder in the cabin and you can feel the engine more. Both of these I think are plusses because if you are modifying your daily driver the only time you really want to feel it is WOT.

 

im making my mounts in metal in the next few weeks ill let you know how that goes....

 

carefull true solid mounts can wreak havok if not done properly

 

a machine shop will do them for me.. thx for the concern...

 

Finally received my dampener. Will install tomorrow. Hope it works as well as I anticipate.

 

just ordered mine ywsterday.

 

hope you guys dont have to go throught the trouble i did to fit it on the engine mount.

 

How long did it take to arrive?

 

1 month! I ordered it on Feb.11 and it came in today.

 

I guess I have 3 more weeks to wait then...
