The car idles smooth, and there's less vibration from the engine to chasis than in my S14 with the Nismo mounts.

Theoretical navel-gazing from people who don't BUILD cars is harmful to the community. Please know what you're talking about before posting your uninformed opinions.

Those mounts only take care of Damping Compressive forces. Does nothing for Tension force. Sure it idles well on the jello. But when the engine experiences torsional forces that mount becomes solid, pulling on the bolt.
