Here is where I got mine at Summit Racing. They are the cheapest I have found at $105. They have the black polyeurathane. For some reason the red one are more expensive, but from some research, the specs are the same as far as performance. No one sees them so why get the red then.

Hi Ricky,

I'm using Steeda motor mounts with one red and one black puck on each side. No clearance issues with my JBA shorty headers which are the bulkiest header package on the market due to the equal length design. The Steeda motor mounts with the 50/50 red/blackisolation pucks are a good compromiseto me in theamount of noise and vibrationthat gets into the cabin. I had tried the all black setup but that was really too much, not quite asmuch vibration as an all solid motor mount but pretty close.Steeda's motor mount system allows you to tune the level of engine NVH you are willing to accept in the cabin. The red/black mounting puck combination is pretty good, the car jumps right NOW when you launch or get on the throttle and to be honest there is more engine vibration than with the stock O.E. fluid filledmotor mounts but the difference in response is more noticable than the increased engine NVH.

Prothane also makes a very good motor mount with an almost identical design for our cars and I think they can at least be purchased with your choice of red pucks which are soft but stiffer than stock or black which are very stiff and introduce a lotmore engine noise and vibrations into the passenger cabin. Both are good designes and work fine.

HTH!

Meangreen1200,

Sowhat exactly are you posting here? BMR does not make motor mounts, they sell Prothane mounts just like Summit who has the identical Prothane item for $15.00 less, why is BMR so great in your opinion? I know it is not price and it's not like the motor mounts they sell are any different.

HTH!

Why because I like them, They are a good company and sell top quality products. Do you have a problem with that? A lot of parts are not produced by the comp that sells it, although BMR makes most of there stuff.

Hi Meangreen1200,

The only problem I have with your post and the tens of thousands of other empty postsjust like itisthe complete lack of any supporting comments or explaination as to why you like Brand X or Vendor Z. I like BMR and BMR's productsand have posted as such several times. There is nothing unique about the motor mounts BMR sells at prices that are higher than many other sources selling the identical product.

So my question to you is why are you asking someone else to pay more for the same item they can buy from awell known supplier? Because you like them? I'd rather have the $15to usefor some more beer or a tube of silicone bushing grease but apparently YMMV.

HTH!

These are the ones from JDM. I screwed up during my project and didn't buy with the rest of my components - now no one will touch my car to install these with the Saleen in (no work area to try it myself). [:@][:'(]
