with a ratcheting tie strap. It is secured to the core supports. I'm thinking that this would restrict the engine from torquing on hard accels. Unfortunately it is raining today and I really can't get on the car hard without just spinning wheels. From my observations, it does seem like under hard accel that more power is put to the wheels. My ultimate goal is to really limit wheel hop off the line under hard launches. There is definately less play when I keep the car in one gear, and go between coasting and getting on the gas. There is no change in idle or vibrations within the car. I was trying to find a cheap alternative to the Place Racing polyurethane motor mounts.

To the radiator core support???!!->

Ah one good engine movement and it will probably bend that support up. Is this some kind of camry thing?? hehe. J/K.

Read this link for inexpensive motor mount mods.
