Engine mounts for the 996?

[Chicagospeed996]

Are these good quality motor engine mounts to retain stock feel? I want to keep them original. They look like a good deal? (Posted on Rennlist too)

Chicagospeed...  I have a set of motor mounts out of my 2003 C4S with 60,000 miles that are good, and I would sell cheap...

Why would you not buy these Corteco ones - they are OEM? http://www.pelicanparts.com/catalog/SuperCat/0909/POR_0909_ENGMIS_pg3.htm#item9

I would not touch 60k used motor mounts.

Ah yes. Mine only have 39k on them. So yes 60k would not be an improvement. The corteco ones are more expensive. I think the Beck ones in that link are stock replacent and a OEM supplier.

+1 with new either Porsche "Branded" or OEM Corteco/REIN

I have quite prominent wheel hop in my 02 Carrera (140000 km), I guess my engine mounts are shot. Which should I buy to eliminate wheel hop? New OEM, semi solids, any reccomendations.

[GromitInWA]

If you drive normally I would go with OEM. If you track, semi solids or solids might be good.

While I am in diagnosing a cracked head I changed out my rear mounts.   Easy job, but glad I did -- '99 - 84000 miles and had developed a slight vibration right at idle - would go away slightly off idle - I hope this cures it.   Video - new on left - completely shot on the right!

I bought the Rein ones from autoatlanta. Mine were at 55,000 miles but 18 years old. You can see the difference between the used ones and the new ones.
