You'll get used to them. You should try prothanes + s4 cams. I love it though.

Haha I remember when you sat in my car and you said you would never get prothanes

So I'm highly thinking about stock or stock/silicon filled side mounts.

Nismo - JWT engine mounts are the best.

They fit better
They do not wearout or oval out ( Will last the life if the car )
They have less vibration
The are stiffer

They work very well, but the rattling is a deal-breaker for me. The setup I really like is stock sides, ES rear, and a solid metal (no bushing) front dogbone. Zero wheelhop, zero engine movement, very little vibration and harshness.

Mine broke in and I've gotten used to it. I was giving my mom a lift home in my car, and she is like woah why is it vibrating so badly. I couldn't find the right word to say in Russian so said nothing. She then pretty much said "what have you done to your poor car"

I'm really considering both sides, but not sure if it's worth the money/effort

Haha yup I remember that, those were the days I was dreaming of a turbo car. Now that it is a reality I guess vibrations are just a way of life...

I'm chasing rattles and vibrations today. Tightening up screws and bolts. I haven't started it since Saturday. I figure I'll go get some gas today too. At high speeds it was fine. Just gotta adjust my idle, wash and wax(whenever it stops raining) and then I'm ready for the Nashville meet in a couple weeks.
