My neighbor's 95' TA has a 6-speed and whenever you step on the gas very hard at all the shifter raises up about 2-3inches. It doesn't get hard to shift or anything but its kinda strange. Anyone else have this problem?

My guess would be motor mounts along with the normal flex of the trans mount. Run a Energy Suspension trans mount. It has metal in it that lock when it flexes too far.

i think its just normal because my engine doesnt move at all when i rev it and look at it.

Well its kinda strange cause it used to only move a little bit but one day this rubber peice fell out and its all mangled and now it jumps out outta the boot.

Your motor will hardly move while revving it. It's not under load.

The shifter moving around is normal. Think about it, it's directly connected to the transmission which is getting lots of stress. If it's really bad, then a new tranny mount will help.

lol^, But if you replace the tranny mounts/bushings with poly, it'll fix it stiff... My stick doesn't even move at all when i look at it...

It moves up cause the Tranny Mount is gone. The reason it moves up when you gun it is cause the Torque Arm is mounted to the back of the Tranny, and the Geometry of the Suspension when you gun it causes the Torque Arm to push up, taking the Tranny with it.

you know what i mean he was in front of me when going to the body shop.

my shifter moves up on idle when revving or under load. doesnt bother me one bit either.

I still say get the Energy Polly Mount. I had one on my A4 TPI, loved it. I should've took it out before I sold the car >_< (Along with it's built tranny since mines a 700R4 too)

I have the Energy Suspension one also, nice mount..

Ditto. The LT4 solid rubber mount will also stiffin' things up quite a bit.

im looking for some new mounts not completely stiff but something that will be a step over stock what am i looking at ?

TheBiz

Motor or tranny? Motor, just go with the energy suspension poly ones. For the tranny, I would go with the LT4 solid rubber mount. Stiffer than stock, but doesn't transfer as much movement as the poly mounts.

Again, the Poly has a limit before the metal catches. So it only gives so much. It also means it'll out last them all It's the benefit of a solid, with the 'comfort' of a rubber.
