People fill in their mounts with polyurethane when the mount breaks as a cheaper alternative to buying brand new mounts, It helps a little, but generally speaking it just creates more rattles and is only a temp fix. I've heard of people using window weld as a cheaper alternative to polyurethane. On good condition mounts it is suppose to help with engine movement when launching. Energy Suspension makes motor mount inserts for most cars which do a similar job, but the problem is they only do it for certain mounts on the car.

Personally in my experience filling the mounts will snap in a week if you put down enough power.

I've got a brand new layer of dirt all over my car. Actually, it's been there for a few months.

lol, I'm not gonna have that problem, trust me. The dash rattle is terrible, but I'm gonna eventually tear my dash apart and put foam tape on the top of the center air ducting, that's where its the worst. With the filled mounts shifting has become incredibly better, I used to have a lot of trouble going from first to second but now it just clicks smoothly into gear. Wheel hop is also no more

^No prob, let me know if you really wanna do it, I've got the urethane gun and some extra tips. Just order 2 of these 3M Scotch-Weld DP601NS Urethane Adhesive
make sure you get the 50ml syringe. I'll come up and give you a hand, just buy me lunch and we'll be set.

i sold my pro-c's and i'm on eibach sportlines and oem shocks now. NIGHT and DAY difference! i miss the flat as a board handling but i am enjoying the more comfortable ride on the sportlines.

t1r s-spec dampers and a progress rear sway bar are next, probably sometime in late january.
