Do a search on Group N (or Gruppe N) motor mounts. Or, you could PM TOMSSVX

Its funny you say that, I asked him a few weeks ago. I tried the nasioc place too but they all want 40-80 bux for wrx stock used mounts.

The Gruppe N mounts run ~$90 from Rallisport, then you have to use washers or weld some plate on them to make them work with the SVX brackets. Check my locker for the "weld some plate" option. TOMSSVX has the "washer" method nailed down

Thanks Bill. Do you think welding is neccasary? or is that just being thorough. Not knocking the washers but it seems the plate would reduce flexing more than washers. or is that assumption just wrong I still want to get some cheapes for her car too. the stock wrx mounts should work fine for her.

Eric,
It's just another approach. The washers will definitely work -- this is the way Tom J (TOMSSVX) has done all of the Gruppe N motor mounts he's installed to date. I went with the welded method because I like the increased amount of contact area between the mount and the SVX plate.

We used the plate method in my car as well but welding is not necessary.
