You mean trans mounts? They are pretty easy just make sure you do the back on first.

The front mount is seriously rediculously easy even with basic hand tools. The rear is a little more involved, but still very straight forward

They come as a set so you get both anyways. If you are asking if you should do a solid upper motor mount along with the trans mounts then personally, I would say do just the trans mounts.

I have the TTR STOP mounts. After I installed them I had noticeably more vibes down low in the rpms, but it really wasn't all that bad, and the motor torque twists WAY less obviously. A friend of mine has both the trans mounts and the upper mount in his SS/SC. Holly christ dude is it stiff!! It sounds like the car is going to rattle apart when he takes off from a stop.

So I guess what I'm saying is it really depends on what you are looking to do. If you want a really aggressive motor mount setup, then by all means get both. If you want something mildly aggressive, but works really well for the average tuned/fully bolted SS, then do just the trans mounts.

Again, this is just my oppinion....

i have just the front mount and it did absolutely nothing. Im hoping eventually to get the rear mount and see results, but you should try to get the rear only first and report if it does anything.

i guess i was referring to ZZP mounts, you can buy them individually

Yes the ottp stage 1 and 2 will give you both the front and rear trans mounts. The stage 2 is obviously a bit more aggressive, and the better choice IMO

I did the TTR Stop mounts and they took about an hour to install. Very easy with basic hand tools. That and I have tried to make the wheels hop and have yet to be able to do so.

Not a problem. Performance is great the vibrations stopped after about 500 miles of driving on first start up they felt like the car was going to shake apart. This is common with all solid type motor mounts though. I replaced the mounts in my 350z with solids and it did the same thing.
