from all my searches I have come up with stock or supra stock - no noticiable vibration increase.
The only other alternative was the hockey pucks that many many people frown upon on this board. However I know many and have talked to a couple big HP domestic guys that use them.

MVP Motorsports or Power House Racing- or both make solid motormounts.
Megan makes some now: http://www.horsepowerfreaks.com/part...inforced/12270
Also TRD Supra TT race engine mounts... If you have a newer SC you might have to get the newer brackets, but these engine mounts should bolt right in. Don't hold me to that- just suggestions, so you can further research..

They offer two versions, the taller early model mounts and shorter later model ones. I have a 1997, so when I ordered them I gave them my year and I got the late model ones. Once I got the engine off the old blown factory mounts, install was a breeze. Went right in like factory. Engine is VERY solid now. As for downside, I have BFI and FULL exhaust, and this causes slight vibrations throughout the whole car. I can feel the manual shifter vibrating. Sometimes at cold idle I get a slight vibration from the gauge cluster area. Outside of car I can hear some part of the front bumper vibrating near the drivers side headlight. For reference, I have 152,000 miles.
You can find them at More-Japan.com and FRSport.com
Anyone know of a beefier mount for the W58 transmission? Or just 5 speed transmissions in general: W58/R154?

Has anyone had experience with these mounts or just know about them? Right now i have a pair from creative steel and im looking at getting there new version, but stuck deciding if I should get a solid or a solid with bit of urethane.

I have had both the PowerHouse Solid Mounts and the TRD's. IMO the solid mounts are overkill unless your in the 800whp+ club. The TRD mounts are a very good choice if your looking for something stronger than stock. I have read that these mounts can transmit a bit of vibration through the interior depending on how smooth or rough your engine runs. Though I have noticed no vibration from the TRD mounts. Hope this helps.
