Damn, they beat me too it.

NST are currently working on some solid motor mounts. Different from the Energy are. I'm interested in seeing the differences in terms of vibrations between the two.

Ahhh, another case of serious reverse engineering.
I can imagine how bad the vibration will be. Recently sat on Mojoyaris' car and without him telling me; knew he was running on "modified" engine mounts the moment I started his engine.

Certainly more vibration and lots of road noise will be transmitted once the car is in motion.
Remember whatever modifications you make, there will be something you will be giving up in return. Better handling means giving up a bit of ride comfort.

Well, I realized different strokes for different folks.
Happy modding and enjpy your ride.
