Just had some Revshift Motormounts installed in my 05 CTSv. Oh my, what a difference! Car feels awesome. I don't notice any vibrations over stock. It was worth the wait for them to be delivered

I posted as many have been asking which motor mounts they should go with, I picked up the Revshift blue ones and am very happy with them.

Sorry to waste all your valuable time.

No need to be defensive, man. We just want to hear what you have to say. The more detail, the better for everyone.

We were laughing at your post because it sounded like eBay feedback.

Oh I posted that because there wasn't any real discussion points to be had with such a vague thread.

Let me try this again:

While there are not many options I know I struggled to decide between the Creative Steel mounts and the Revshift. There seemed to be positive and negatives to both. My v is a daily driver and while I drive it aggressively from time to time I will give up ultimate performance for smoothness. I even considered replacing the worn out mounts with new stockers. I decided on the Revshift blues and am very impressed. My stock mounts must have been complete garbage as it feels like a different car. I will have to wait to see if they last but so far I am very satisfied.

My car is close to stock with only muffler delete and a B and M shifter. Will likely go with a head /cam package in the future.

i ordered blue mounts, trans insert and rear diff bushing yesterday. one of my engine mounts is bad so i imagine itll be a huge difference for me

I didn't realize how many misc clunks and vibrations were attributable to the motor mounts.

The reduction in mirror shaking was the biggest surprise after installing cs mounts few years ago.

If you think about it, you've got hundreds of pounds of metal distributed along the length of your car that is effectively suspended from the frame of the car in three, distinct points (motor, tranny, and differential mounts--ignoring the rear subframe for the moment), with the only "hard" point in the system being the rear axles. Shoring up any of of those three mounting points will reduce drivetrain movement. Because the motor is your drivetrain's prime mover (in essence, the absolute origin of all drivetrain noise), it should be expected that unwanted drivetrain noises would be reduced significantly.

For instance, when you disengage the clutch, the reverse torque transient will tend to want to spin the motor and transmission in the opposite direction. Since the transmission mount isn't really designed to withstand that kind of movement, and because the transmission is bolted to the motor, bad motor mounts could allow something to spin and hit something that it shouldn't, creating a nice clunk or thump that the driver can feel. Even if it isn't as bad as a discrete, audible "clunk," the driver may still feel weight shifting around in the car and perceive it as a sloppy or imprecise response to his input.

By the way, how bad were your stock mounts? Do you have pictures?

This is like the black-head removal trope of the V community.

this is true. with the revshift cradle mounts and the uuc diff mount, my drivetrain clunk is all gone.

I still need to get these. I have every other bushing that Revshift makes for our cars tho and it made a world of difference.
