Interesting.

I've driven that car (on the street and on the track) and nothing you say is applicable.

"Excess stress on the chassis"? LOL - Dude, it's a 400-whp KA-T... Who gives a shit about "excess stress"?

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.
