034Motorsport Engine and Transmission Mounts - Feedback Wanted

[XMetal]

Has anyone tried or have feedback on the 034Motorsport's Density Line Mounts => https://www.ecstuning.com/b-034motor...4-509-3646~kt/

I only know of one member "JimBob0047" that has it installed => https://www.zpost.com/forums/showpos...29&postcount=4

Since NVH is so subjective, I would like to get more opinions or feedback if possible on these mounts.

The most NVH that I want tolerate is in the realm of Vibra-Technics street mounts, which is what I currently run. Unfortunately, those are starting to fail and I need to look for replacement. Any feedback would greatly be appreciated. Thanks.

Subbed. I just installed Vibra-Technics and want to stay up to date on their longevity. I don't find the NVH to be all that different from stock to be honest, but also being honest I do not have the world's greatest hearing so maybe I should just say I don't notice all that much more VH. In the meantime I really appreciate the added stability of the engine when going up/down through the gears. The combination of mounts and Auto Solutions shifter made the car a joy to shift.

They are like factory in regards to NVH.

Haven’t noticed any additional NVH.

I've decided to pull the trigger on the 034Motorsport mounts as the rubber on the VT were looking super squished and not too healthy on the passenger side. The "VH" had started to creep up a bit in the past year or so. They haven't failed yet, but I wanted to be proactive in replacing them. The rubber itself have lots of micro cracks and it's very "crunchy". After 7 years and about 35k miles of SoCal heat, they were about due for replacement. The driver's side is in much better shape and could probably go a few more years.

I would say the 034 mounts fall somewhere in between the stock and VT mounts. Not as tight as the VT, but definitely a good solid improvement over stock. Although, I didn't think the NVH were that noticeable compare to stock until I got the 034 mounts installed. The 034 mounts are butter smooth compared to those VT mounts. They are definitely like factory in regards to NVH as JimBob0047 indicated! Since I don't track my car, these 034 mounts are a perfect balance for my application.

Thanks JimBob0047 for bringing these mounts to my attention!

My pleasure! Glad I could contribute! Paired with some rouge trans mounts and it's perfect.

Will probably follow your suggestion and go the same route!

Totally agreed - the RE trans mounts are a must. I previously had VT engine mounts paired with Rouge trans mounts and I thought those were perfect. Had I not known about the 034, I was going to replace the VT with the same or go back to stock. So happy to find the 034 mounts

The VTs were replaced with 034 and the RE were replaced with the same. My old RE mounts were about 9 years old, nothing wrong with them other than lots of rusts on one of them - most likely from the A/C drain line. But since I had the car at the mechanic for the engine mounts done along with a bunch of other stuffs, why not get them done as well.

You can't go wrong with either combo. But I like the OEM-like smoothness of the 034 slightly more. The VTs are more "racecar" feel of the 2.

Thanks for posting those links. However, those are not the same mounts used on the S54. I guessed we'll be the guinea pigs for these.
