BTW, adjusting the clutch so it engages closer to the floor has definitely helps with the shudder situtation. There is still a fair amount of clutch slippage under hard acceleration shifting but I am sure the clutch is worn some after being out of adjustment for a bit.

I'm glad that helped it for you, as I hadn't been driving it very far (just to work and back once in a while) I guess it wasn't heating it up enough to get the shudder very often, but the trip to PA probably got it good and hot if it was slipping the whole time from being adjusted to tight...
You can just have the mounts shipped to me at work, just e-mail me when you're ready to order them, and I'll get you my work address.

I think the STI impreza mounts can handle the svx's torque, but I dont think the regular impreza Mounts can, what do you guys think?

Well being that the STi has more torque than the SVX...i would say thats a good assumtion.

I'M A NEW MEMBER. I HAD AN SVX FOR THE LAST 3 YEARS. AND THANKS TO All INFORMATION A WAS ABLE TO DO THE 5 SPEED SWAMP. BUT GOING TO THE SUBJECT, JUST A COUPLE OF WEEKS BACK, I REPLACE THE MOTOR MOUNTS, WITH THE STI ONE, THAT ARE ON SALE FROM SUBARU PARTS. IT WAS THE SHEAPEST WAY. I GOT THEM ABOUT 4 DAYS AFTER I ORDER THEM. THE ONLY MOD I DID WAS TO MAKE THE HOLES A LITTLE BIGER TOWARD THE INSIDE ON THE ORIGINAL PLATES. THE ONES THAT CAME WITH THE STI, ARE LESS STRONG THAN THE ORIGINAL ONE'S. AND THE WORK JUST FINE. AND IS VERY IMPORTANT TO REPLACE THEM SPECIALY IF YOU HAVE THE 5 SPEED TRANNY.....

I MOVED FROM DENVER ABOUT A YEAR AND A HALF AGO. AND ABOUT 4 MONTH, I STARTED TO HAVE PROBLEMS WITH CLUTCH CABLE. IT KEEP BRAKING, UNTIL THE FORK FROM THE TRANNY GOT LOOSE AND I COULDN'T DRIVE THE CAR ANYMORE SO I ENDUP BUYING A CAVALIER AT THE AUCTION. AT LEAST I CAN FIND PARTS A LOT EASIER AND SHIPPER. SPECIALY BEEN BROKE. FINALLY I TOOK THE TRANNY OFF THE CAR AND REPLACE THE CLUTCH FORK. I ALSO NOTICE THAT THE CV JOIN WERE BROKE. SO I FIGURE THAT THE ENGINE WAS HAVING TOO MUTCH MOVEMENT. I LIFT THE ENGINE UP AND NOTICE THAT THE MOUNTS WERE BAD.
