So further to replacing all of my suspension links - which made a huge difference to the car - I have just replaced the 2 engine mounts (Rein mounts from pelican parts which are reboxed OE mounts). Simple job compared to the suspension links that's for sure!
The difference in the car is incredible. I had read posts on here from others that had replaced theirs, but didn't appreciate what they said about improved handling until I drove mine just now. It is like a different car. Only now do I realize how sloppy it was. The engine is now semi rigid in the car, moves with the car, not against it. Gear changes under hard acceleration are so much smoother - the car doesn't lurch when the clutch is disengaged.
My passenger seat doesn't shake anymore either!
Highly recommend doing this to anyone who hasn't changed them.
I am delighted with the results. Between the new suspension and engine mounts, the car is finally fantastic!
