Yes, the V-6 dogbone mounts do fit our cars but you only need one.

D,

If you are going to get it and you have to buy 2 I'll buy the other one off you. Not sure if you can just get one or not. Hope this helps.

there was a thread on clubgp (3800 guys) about what mount was better between intense and zzp. a lot of them said the zzp was harder then the intense mount and had a lot of vibration while the intense mount was a lil softer and didnt cause as much vibration. anybody on here have anything other then the zzp mount?

D,

Look at this. I found this on Intense's website and it is a softer compound than the others.

Does urethane ride really hard (harsh)?
The original rubber bushing or mount was fairly soft which helped to attenuate noise and vibration that is generated by the tires and road surface. Increasing the hardness of the bushing either with harder rubber, urethane or even bronze, will allow more transmission of noise and vibration. We formulated the hardness and design of these mounts to reduce this effect. Our softer urethane bushing allows the vehicle to perform better without added harshness, even over the same hardness rubber piece.

I think they look good too. I have a feeling you'll try these...

your right Mike haha. i was leaning more towards the intense ones from the start but just wanted to see if there were any other options out there. from what i have read a lot of guys switched from zzp to intense mounts.

Intense dogbone mounts are solid polyurethane and do not give harsh vibrations. I have them on my GTP and the vibrations are not bad at all and the engine hardly moves with those on. There is way more back and forth movement on the V-6 cars than our cars. Personally, I think the Intense mounts are a great product and less expensive than the others out there.
