Shown here is an early version.. just dirty to test the design. We are at r4 or r5 now and real close to production. That we have reached this point on the 2.3 with no balance shafts and a harder than production trans mount is nice.  Now I need a few people willing to beta test them once we get some more made up.  You will have to report back to me.   Also you must be willing to swap the mount possibly more than once.  At least a stg3 car with my trans mount too.  Leave a message in the comments or email me: nick at this site.     This mount is not aimed at the Full race but more your everyday sportscar needing more than the stock rear mount.  But not as far as our full <a href=\"http:\/\/trolltuner.com\/?p=86\">race mount<\/a> that would be too rough for a daily driver. <\/p>\n<p>The steering modifications are quite ok on the street. We might need to put just a touch more toe in it like stock or replace the bushings with poly.  Certainly doing this to my Viggen next. Maybe not so aggressive of a change but it makes the car feel quite unlike any NG900\/9-3 I have driven. I was thinking with the rest of the mods it should make quite a package.  -N<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Putting some miles on the 2.3i car to test both the new steering mods and the prototype rear mount.
