I like the look of that ... I've never felt 100% comfortable about the fact that we don't have any gearbox mounts, especially for those with much higher than standard torque outputs from turbo/superchargers!!

Bracing the transmission won't stop your clutch shuddering.

That sits pretty low. It could scrape a bit.

I dont think you guys have experienced what the transmission sounds like until you install that.... or something similiar

sounds like a race car, gearbox/diff winding away :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :evil: :evil:

It looks like it's got poly bushes to isolate at least some of the NVH...but yeah you're right it will pass at least some vibes thru.

BTW this is a pretty close copy of something Carbing Okuyama used to make, but is now discontinued.
