Onion Posted May 15, 2013 Posted May 15, 2013 Urethane mounts and bushings aren't too bad. I've never experienced delrin, so I can't speak for that. I will say that the reason my car rides like crap isn't because of the mounts and bushings. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrewr05 Posted May 15, 2013 Posted May 15, 2013 I've never experienced delrin, so I can't speak for that.Its basically the Parmesan/Asiago of synthetics whereas basic rubber bushing material is like mozarella. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waco Posted May 16, 2013 Posted May 16, 2013 I'm sure you could compare a nice tempurpedic bed with plenty of pillows to getting assaulted by a gang. You're trying too hard. Seriously though - Delrin mounts suck. They're pretty close in terms of the headaches induced to solid aluminum mounts. Everything in the car will rattle. My freakin' hood visibly shook ~1" up and down at idle and low RPM. The hum at 3500 RPM was unbearable. In comparison the Mazda racing mounts are the most tame, comfortable, and quiet engine mounts in the world...and people don't like them because they're "too harsh".

You mean my cam that makes my entire car rattle and my exhaust that's so loud that I can't hold a conversation without my voice going hoarse? Side note, my hood shook on the mustang, too. That thing was a rattle trap, though. But, why all of this? Because race car! But hey, I'm as satisfied as ever with my purchase and madly in love with my car. The neighbor kids that my brother hangs out with always are like "WHOAH, THAT'S YOUR BOTHER'S?! WE HEAR IT FIRE UP SOMETIMES, ITS A BEAST!" That, the thumbs ups, the smiles, all the conversations started by it, and the pure joy of driving it and feeling connected to the car because it has no driver assists makes it so worth it. I want another Z now. On topic, I got more stuff in the mail. More connectors to continue refreshing my electrical system and prevent it from lighting ablaze again, new rubber crap to replace all the old cracked stuff, mounting hardware for my harnesses, and my long awaited Schroth harness gets here soon. Can't wait to strap down in the Corbeaus and see how it feels. Edited May 16, 2013 by Onion Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waco Posted May 16, 2013 Posted May 16, 2013 I tweaked my timing so that whenever I let off the throttle I shoot huge flames out the exhaust. Nobody around here cares...but nobody tailgates me any more either. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Onion Posted May 16, 2013 Posted May 16, 2013 Mine backfires hard and sounds like a 9mm being fired if I suddenly let off the gas, but it doesn't blow flames. However, I'm not sure that's a bad thing, lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
