Questions to those who have VF/VWR engîne mounts installed

<< < (4/10) > >>

^^^ I think this is just the same as the Neuspeed/ECS insert and IIRC you get the powerflex one with the Milltek exhausts  :smiley:

john_o:
unless Im mistaken , the one Ive listed is NOT the insert one Steve.... its an additional one.
(the traditional insert is listed as well as "Lower Engine Mount Insert (Large)")

looking to create a hybrid of VWR lower mount(road) but at the same time take the flex out of the bar (without paying out for BSH/VF solid versions...)  :happy2:

SteveP:
I see what you mean now  :happy2:

That will be THE best option all round - The VWR mount is superb, but even a weakling like me could bend the dogbone with my bare hands. I'll be looking at the VWR one at some point in the future to add to my VF dogbone, as the OEM rubber mount isn't going to last forever, even with an insert.

Belt & braces FTW.

....I see where you're coming from and am following in your shadow!

If it's any consolation, VWR tell me that they use the stock oem bar with their solid Race mounts and have had no problems after several seasons driving hard on track.

However, there's always a first time and I'm a belt & braces guy too!

Not exactly my cuppa tea, but.... << Swamp Donkey Warning!!
