how many motor mounts are on the 5SFE, manual trannies? because I feel like one of my motor mounts is gone...I have replaced the rear, the left one under the airbox and then the front one this morning...still having the same problem. I get a vibration when starting off....if I put a strap from the hook on the front right side of the head to the front of the car by the battery, it stops the vibration....any ideas? I can tell something is up when I shift the car as well =\

the shaking is because our mounts are a rubber composite, switch to urethane and all that energy lost in engine shaking gets converted into HP, the only problem is then you will have to reinforce where it mounts to accept the extra strain, and you will need to convert all the mounts to urethane to compinsate so nothing gets ripped lose, its a great mod to reduce powerloss, but it is time consuming, and they dont even make them for our cars anyways.
