    Price is about the same at Morrie's with the discount.


    Difficulty I suppose depends on your comfort level working on the vehicle. I personally think the tranny mount is SUPER easy and can be done by anyone not abnormally frightened by hand tools.

    The engine mounts are in a tighter spot and require lifting the engine a few inches (jack is fine, hoist not necessary) - plus, when we did mine, we ran into a problem with them fitting and it took us quite a bit of time to coerce the engine back in down.

    There's also a Group-N pitch stop mount.


    I personally LOVE!! my Group-N tranny and engine mounts. The difference is subtle, but all positive, IMO.

    The only NVH I notice is a slightly more throaty engine growl in the cabin - its nothing annoying at all, again IMO.

    Again I have said this time and time again and I am about 98% positive I bought a set of engine mounts and two pitch mounts for less than $150 from Morries ...

    Easy way to tell - OP post it up in the Morrie's vendor forum for prices. Oh, wait - you're not an MNSOC member yet so you can't. ;)



    The tranny mount was right in line (after discount) with rallispec pricing:

    Guess I didn't ask specifically about the engine or pitch stop mounts.

    What I need so far:

    Group-N
    pitch stop mount
    engine mounts
    tranny
    Cobb lowering/Stiffer springs
    Cobb sway bar kit

    Yes you did, I want to buy them and install them all at once, I want to do it right and in budget. Your information was helpful. That is why I want to learn more. :biggrin:

    I want a membership card, I figured I would buy one at a meet :) You should come and meet up in Monticello the 20th of March @ 7pm (http://www.mnsubaru.com/forums/showthread.php?t=31061) and invite anyone who does sell MN subaru Cards so I can buy one! ;)

    Not scared of any tools, I'm use to motorcycles and sleds. But I'm trying to adapt to cars :). Group N picth stop, what does is do? Something with the shifting?

    It's under the intercooler between the engine and the firewall of the body.

    O.K. That makes sense. With the new 20G I see how the stronger mounts would be nice.

    Search fella! This has been talked about at least 3-4 times a year, also if you were a MNSOC member you could browse the Morries tonka thread, they have been priced at least 3 times in there...

    What was I thinking? I should read every page in the whoe forum and then ask questions :laugh:

    Buying a membership would be great, I would like to buy one at a meet so then I'll have a excuse to go hang out with other members. Haven't had a chance yet, or I can paypal, but that isn't any fun.

    If you put in your signature your car has a 20g you wouldn't have to tell us in every post.

    Orly? Morrie's Subaru also sell Group N mounts? Rallispec just jacked up their prices again. I've found some sites that sells engine mounts as seperate, so $99 left side, $99 right side.
