My friend who owns and mods his Saturn told me about billet aluminum dog-bone replacements some of Saturn owners on his forum are using... sounded pretty interesting maybe better then this mod? I tried to google for it, but no luck... Maybe someone here can make them? NST???

C-ONE has some, but at JDM prices

Can't beat this method for cost-effectiveness!

If you look on NST's MySpace page they have made these not in production yet but they mocked them up

Just Filling the DOGBONE would be enough to ease the HOP?! Cause I hate the hoP!

yarisugi · 03-12-2009, 12:48 AM

Do you think I could get some ladies this way?

kou · 03-27-2009, 07:51 PM

finished product. vibrations pretty bad, i'm going to drill a couple of holes to help it flex a little.

fuji · 04-10-2009, 07:35 PM

Can this mod be used on both autos and manual transmissions?

YarisSedan · 04-10-2009, 07:56 PM

My friend did this to his civic but it makes the car idle severely bad. I think personally your better off just getting the nitto torque dampner. Unless you are going for a race setup. But if its your daily driver you are going to regret it after awile.

fuji · 04-11-2009, 04:19 AM

Where do you order the lower engine mount from????

I agree with you. Also the torque dampner wont cost too much and can be removed anytime. You would probably vibrate your whole car to bits with stiff engine mounts. lol.
