Wheel hop - engine control rod options? aka torque strut - Toyota Yaris Forums

Thanks for the reply/info. I run stock power levels, but NT01s for autoX and daily driving. Lots of traction there, which is what pounded out the mount so quick. I tried to get a poly bushing to fit a while back, but couldn't source one locally. I ended up just rotating the factory bushing in the mount so that the beefier side is taking the force. It's much improved, but I will have to do it properly soon. I just wanted to not destroy my car at the last autoX event. Just rotating the mount would be good enough for most low-powered cars I would say, but not help at your power levels. I can see why they use such a soggy mount though, these engines run pretty rough at 550rpm with the a/c on....... need to fix a glovebox rattle now.

Cheers.
