Default APR Snub Mount installed!

Hey all,

What a PITA! Well for someone with limited skills (me) I had some trouble, but I managed to get it done.

The more I drive it, the more I appreciate the difference. No more lurching when idling in stop-n-go traffic. Much more positive shifting. I had thought that the squat and lean from accel/decel was the susp, but some was def attributed to the excess engine movement. The stock mount is pretty flimsy.

Thanks to xr4tic for his webpage directions. =)

With the Neuspeed short shifter, car is a joy.

Just need more power.

Take care,

FB

Default Heh,

I was really wishing I had an extra set of hands a few times...

It's doable though. =)

Default It is a PITA! I did mine alone too. The most important role of having

someoe there to help you is simply to hold the steering wheel to see if it vibrates while you tighten down the housing. I had to adjust it then get up see if there was vibration, go back down, re-adjust, get back up again......and again....
