I'm running the Subaru one, buggah is mean!

Nah, only joking Walter. I think you could spend your money on something else that would make a bigger diffence though. Maybe some group N motor/tranny mounts or the cusco ones. Just my 2 cents.

Group N but did tranny/engine mounts at the same time so couldn't tell you if just the pitch mount makes a difference.

I have always debated if I wanted to do the pitch stop and mounts. I'm just worried the added stiffness would lead to even more shockload to the tranny. We all know what happens there...

Those pitch mounts...

can introduce some serious NVH into the cabin, I've experienced it first hand...Like some have said above...go with the engine mounts/transmission mount upgrade...

I had soo much engine movement with my stock sti engine mounts...that a squeak/creak develped and drove me nuts. I was going to go the Group N engine/tranny mounts but I wanted to make sure that creak went away...and went Cusco...they went away...with a cost.

The transmission mount really tightened up my shifting...overall a nice upgrade, but it did add nvh into the car...my .02 cents.

what really tightened up my shifting was the Perrin rear lockdown kit...wow, what a difference. No more thunking when shifting hard.
