Unless you have an absolute reason for solid mounts, I would go poly.

To "Feel" the car more. I put Spohn solids on mine and LOVE them. Then again, if vibration isn't your thing, you won't like them. I DD drive mine and like it. Some people are about comfort.

I like the shake, myself.

Polys are great. People love them. Offer awesome control of the motor, no sagging, and minimal vibration.

I'd reccommend Prothane.

i just put Prothane MM's in mine and yes there is a slight vibration at first but it has REALLY calmed down after having them in for two weeks. You still feel them slightly at a stop but after that its smooth sailing. They are a PITA to get in and get lined up but just follow the write ups and you should be fine. GL man.

This; I love my poly mounts. Shifter and engine don't move nearly as much as the stock mounts, and the vibration is hardly noticeable.

There isnt one. Unless you like you fillings shaken from your teeth.....and if "feel" is referred to as introducing new squeaks and rattles in an already "loose" toleranced chassis, go nuts.
