Is this supposed to be a solid trans mount deal? I have a couple uhmw condor mounts attached to a crossmember sitting in my old swap car. But they are damn 1" thick uhmw with a clearance hole lol. A whole 3$ worth of material.

They are stock e21 with a jacket surrounding the rubber I guess.
I have the condor trans mounts now. I like them for driving around town and short beat runs but I'm planning on doing a cross country trip with my fiancée this summer and buzzing all the way to Cali isn't too appealing.

I have plenty of solid trans mounts in the shop if anyone needs them.

I see I see. Very understandable. What are you thinking for motor mounts?
Whats the most stiff/least vibration? At least what the most soft mount thats okay with an FI system?

I was going to keep the Condor engine mounts and run a stock-ish trans mount like I had before. It felt solid.

Any idea how much this was and where you got it from? I'm about to go down the same road.

I love this build.
Can't wait to get mine running and check out your tail lights.
Thanks!
Waiting on you!! Let's run 'em.

My old timeline was wait until spring then start the build again, but I've actually been making good progress in the cold. New goal is to have everything buttoned up by spring and get it on the road as soon as the salt is gone.
I've been spending too much time parting the E39, but once its gone I will be able to work on the E30 much more efficiently with the extra room.
Thanks!
