yup here they are 80 durometer track tested high quality poly urethane engine and trans mounts. There is a link in my sig that will take you to a multipage reveiw. Lots of people here are using my mounts.
They come with a one month warranty against possible defects in manufacturing. If you are using them in motorsports then like any other product sold for motorsports there is no warranty .
The studs do not run straight through the center of these mounts unlike other brands.
You will not get any excessive vibrations from these because of this.
You will get mounts that are better than Nismo and do not rattle your teeth.
The trans mount has exhaust hanger studs!!
You need to use a heat shield or a heat wrap on the exhaust/turbo side of the engine.
I also should point out that the nuts that are provided are nyloc which means you do not need to torque them down hard. A hand wrench is fine for tightening them. Do not use an air ratchet or impact gun.
Here is a Brand New set of the Greens which are the latest design. $120( engine mounts only) or $230( mounts and trans) for the set picked up. $136 shipped or $249 shipped for the full set. my paypal is

hmm how did I not see this? LOL Oh ya i was out of town. Anyways to answer your question they put the engine about 1/2 inch below the height that Nismo mounts sit your engine at.
They do not cause your oil pan to sit below the crossmember so you do not need to worry about that.

This is incorrect information. These are awesome for a DD. I've been running them for 2 months now. There is absolutely no excess vibration.

Since the NAMM show of last year I still haven't gotten around to buying these. I hope you are doing well.
So it turns out that my brake master cylinder heat shield is hitting my Tial wastegate under heavy acceleration, because my engine is moving probably a full inch with my current Nismo motor mounts. It looks like I finally have a serious reason to buy these motor mounts...

Good for you. They vibrate the shit out of MY car. To say "There is absolutely no excess vibration" is just not true.

No reason for the Flame suit, this is a valid question. I will be happy to address it.
There maybe a little NVH over stock. But for anyone saying they vibrate the shit out their cars? I seriously doubt this or they really have no idea what excessive vibration is.
To many people run these on dailies with no real complaints that way. I could name some other brands I will not name, that make my mounts feel like the cats meow in this department. I won't name them, but I stand by that statement above.
The man two posts above commenting about the vibration is the ONLY person I have ever heard a comment from, about what they feel are extreme vibrations from my mounts. Everyone else seems to rave about the fact that they did not cause excessive vibrations.
I will say if you combine the mounts with my trans mount you will notice a bit more because the factory trans mount is an extremely loose mount. The minute you eliminate the inherent driveline flex that gets transferred to your transmission you will notice a bit increased NVH. That is even spoken of by a championship autocrosser who uses my products and was the first to use the trans mount in competition and wrote a review of it in the tech section.
Oh and you will notice the same result if you use any aftermarket trans mount.
If you want to use a softer trans mount with my engine mounts go ahead it might feel smoother but your shifting will be less accurate. Again this is something noted by the autocrosser mentioned above. With the trans mount he noticed increased shifting accuracy and less chances of a miss shift because the trans stayed in position and did not wobble around like it does with a soft mount.
So there you have it, a bit of trade off for some NVH when using the trans mount for much better power transfer and much cleaners shifting. Its like getting a short shifter and keeping your trans from moving.
Oh and no other aftermarket trans mount besides Nismo has the exhuast mounts.
In the end I realize I cannot please everyone, but the amount of people liking them speaks for itself above all.

I can also vouch for the noticeable improvement in shifting after installing your transmission mount. My shifting was much more precise and I was able to shift faster as well because the transmission would not wobble around.
