Knight says if we get 5 people to commit it's $185 shipped for a set.

Well that makes two of us, so only need 3 more. Of course I have no idea how long it might take to find three more ppl.

Curious, why are you not interested if it might take a while?

Anyone else interested? There are 4 of us who are "for sure" in. Need one more to get the group buy ordered. Price is $185 for the set.

Anyone who wants a set of these, you need to send Knight full payment of $185. Not partial, full.

Once he gets five people who have paid, he will get the process started. Two of us have already paid, we need three more.

DON'T FLOOD KNIGHT WITH PM's. If you have a question, ask it here or pm me.

To order, send $185 to his PayPal email: knight_yyz @ cogeco.ca (no spaces).

Post here when you've paid so I know how many we have.

You think these can be used with the stock rubber motor mounts?

Vibration or broken mounts. Hard choice.

I'm not sure what you're asking. I think you're asking: does it makes sense to use these 2 mounts along with 2 stock rubber mounts?.

If you use these on the passenger/transmission sides, it would make the most sense to use the front and back mounts that Energy Suspension makes as well. That way all 4 mounts are poly and your engine will sit nice and tight under acceleration. You'll keep power at the wheels the best with this setup.

Yes that is correct. Same as the group buys before this one.

Another way of saying it is: You get one transmission-side poly insert for the transmission mount, and one passenger-side poly insert for the pass mount.

Wanna jump in? We're at 3 (2 paid, 1 waiting for tax refund), so need 2 more payments to place the order.

I'd venture a guess that they will be cheaper. OEM are rubber. Replacing old rubber with new rubber........sure they will be stiffer than your old rubber mounts, but still rubber.

Comparing new stock rubber mounts to wrayth mounts is apples and oranges.

If you want a performance enhancement, that's what the wrayth mounts are for. If you want to stay stock vibration, handling, wheel hop, stay with OEM.

I've never said rubber so many times in one post

The stock mounts are liquid filled so there is not a lot of rubber

If you and the other guy order, I'll order two sets and we'll be at five so Knight can get 'em going.

Glad to hear you're in, but you gotta pay to make it happen. There are 2 other people saying what you're saying.........if you guys would simply send Knight the $$ we'd have these ordered by now.

Don't worry, this will happen.

And it will likely be the last run Knight ever does.

Fyi Knight I'm gonna order another set you'll see $$ soon.

You will have to modify them slightly. Just cut off the nibs on the transmission side.

Sorry CS_AR, I should've mentioned that. I did this (pic below) for my '01 on the transmission inserts (both sides), worked perfectly. Cuts real easy with a razor blade.

I send instructions, if you cut half the leftover faces down. You can cut the whole thing off won't matter. Easier to fit that way.
