Side affect is more driveline shock, vibration, etc. Replacing your mounts will bring new life to your car. It'll make your car smoooooth.

Default I agree--new mounts made a huge difference

I just did a Engine rebuild on my '92 SC300 and had torn mounts. Put in '97 Supra TT mounts and the car was transformed. Just leave out the black steel plates from the original set-up
