Or you can make your own front and rear for half the price with some flexane or window weld.....

this.

however this involves down time, if you want to go the DIY route as i often encourage people to do, with no downtime, i'll give you my blown stock front mount and you can do with it as you please. Flexane, I recommended, but window weld works, and is what i used on the rear mount. Another alternative is the Evo 8/9 stock front mount, same as ours but the bushing is solid, though made of rubber, it still offers less roll than our stock mount, while keeping vibration to a minimum, i know at least one guy here opted for it rather than the quite solid as **** Blox roll stopper, which increases vibration in the cabin substantially.

I have a stock evo 9 front mount. It is great for my DD, very little vibration, but since you plan on autocrossing, I would assume the blox or DIY mount would be better suited for you.

I decided Im most likely going to go with the blox.. but I will look into making my own and how much it would really save me. I am also going to wait till its a convieniant time for me to actually put them in. I do want the MM to be soild as they can be but if I did do it myself do you really think it would be the best choice? compaired to a company that makes them I mean. I am going to look into it though. I think I seen a post about it. Thank you guys for your input and advice

How does the 2 year timeframe play out? Are you hoping to get one on the used market by then? Or, are you wanting to get a couple years on this car, before moving to something else?
