[QUOTE="rodneyk, post: 529288, member: 11667"] Anyone have any idea on where to get spectra's engine mounting with a better absorbtion rate compared to the stock? As you have noticed your steering tends to vibrate when you are at N and vibrates even more when you are at D. One of my reasons are due to the engine mounting itself vibrating very much compared to certain cars which are of good quality. Their mounting almost do not vibrate at all as it absorbs really well. The first obvious solution is to get a stiffer mounting. But is it true? A stiffer mounting is a stiffer mounting in the sense of compound & the solidness of the entire mounting. If the engine vibrates, wouldnt the mount vibrates as well and since its so solid it might even make your car dance. Guess this would make your steering and dashboard vibrate even more which would not serve our purpose for a pleasant drive. No doubt the engine would be stable as it is spreading its vibration to other parts of the car saying c'mon let's dance. As a result there is an increase in power. That would bring me to my second obvious solution. Get a mounting with a better absorbtion rate. It is not in anyway solid but it is of a better quality and it should be able to absorb the vibration better. I am still searching for one but to no avail as not many people bother about this or do not want to go through the hassle. Hopefully I would be able to find it soon. [/QUOTE]
