just did the front mount? I did this also and my rear mount tore due to the increased strain. Now, understand, that I was doing some drag racing and hard launches on a stage 3 clutc at the time....so if you don't plan on flogging it you should be fine. If you notice it starting to get loose again it's probably your rear mount going.

Did you guys do the AWR mounts (too harsh) or the R-R inserts? What's it like (vibration with AC on , idle, etc.) with both front and back?

I did AWR Mounts (F/R) - a lot more vibration , but not too bad (IMO) - no wheel hop... feels like i'm sitt'n in a race car (good 4 me)

my only complaint is more *noise* from the drivetrain(?)

i had the front insert first....it broke the rear mount so I replaced them both with AWR pieces. My car has a bit of a vibrtaion to it but nothing I would consider obtrussive.

I will get the rear inserts next, but I am ready to hear the whinning. At least they are not as harsh as the AWRs I had.
