Default Upper Motor Mount Opinions

Hey everyone,

I just installed some ZZP upper motor mounts and dogbone poly bushings. The exhaust is more pronounced, and driving response feels smoother. Overall, I like the stiffer mounts. However, the vibration is a bit more than I expected. I understood there would be some steering wheel vibration... but my dashboard, hood, exhaust, etc. all shake and rattle like a SOB. I've read that the Intense and MSP mounts do not vibrate as much. Anyone mind sharing their personal preferences or experiences with the different brands? I'd like to switch to a mount that doesn't make my car go into seizure every time there is a red light.

Thanks

Yeah, I did alot of searching on grandprixforums.net, and apparantly my combo of upper mounts and the poly bushings will give crazy shakes; which, makes sense. The shaking only gets bad around low idle (700 rpm), but I bought a pair of oem dogbones w/ bushings I'll throw in, hopefully today. Maybe that will calm it down just enough.
