Is this Really going to make a Diffrance??

I do not think so... it is not like we are drifting...
but keep us informed if you do this...

THanks bro..

Yes this actually does make a difference.

mikenacarato · 12-17-2008, 09:38 AM

it will make a huge difference. ive done it to previous cars and i loved it. it will really help the wheel hop issue also.

N3misiS · 12-17-2008, 02:04 PM

I have not thought about that, that will really be handy!

its like adding poly motor mount inserts but cooler :)

N3misiS · 12-17-2008, 02:20 PM

Awe,

SO in turn it stabelizes your car a bit in terms of pull away etc...

kou · 12-17-2008, 02:48 PM

you will get vibration at idle, but you aslo get better smoother shifts,accel,decell,even handling will improve, basicly a much stronger feeling ride.warning the yaris's low idle will make it vibrate alot this only means the mounts are working.

+1 plus i heard the girls like it?? ;)

i used windo-weld on my mounts, world of difference

ddongbap · 12-28-2008, 06:04 AM

So is it done? This is one that I'm really looking foreward to doing. I just can't be w/o my car for that long.

you could do it on a friday afternoon and the mounts will be ready by morning..

btw when i had the trans out this last time, i inspected my mounts, the urethane is still solidly in place. i've heard stories of it cracking and falling out, but my guess is that the person didn't prep the rubber properly (acetone the dirt out, scuff the surface of the rubber with sandpaper)

ddongbap · 12-28-2008, 10:53 AM

I thought there was ATLEAST a 24 hour cure time?

this is the product i used, and i know a couple other guys who have used it as well, no issues seen with a 12hr cure time

HOWEVER!!!! it also depends on the ambient temperature where you're doing the work.. keep them warm during curing and that'll speed things up

cali yaris · 12-29-2008, 12:21 PM

so, you just keep it in the house while it's curing. This is a cool DIY mod, love it.

Tamago · 12-29-2008, 02:54 PM

i'm very happy with mine.. i gotta figure out how to fill in the passenger "side" one next.. it knocks once in awhile
