Engine mounts

Hello guys
I have a broken front engine mount and was wondering if anyone has any experience with the madpolly mounts. They are urethane mounts as opposed to the oem rubber mounts.
Has anyone used any aftermarket engine mounts from Kelpro or Mackay? Are they any good?
Any info from fellow members who have changed their engine mounts would be appreciated.
Cheers
 
Ive got mad polly in mine they are very stiff you will feel the extra vibration through the car, if that doesnt bother you they are a good upgrade to minimize engine movement
 
It'll make the difference between you wanting to take the car on a road trip or not. If you're after a super comfy car, a CE is the wrong thing to be in, but it does change the feel to substantially more raw and "racecar" if you like. Can't be sure on any of the benefits as I don't use solid mounts on any of the road cars I own.
 
I have genuine ralliart solid mounts which are apparently super rare. But I only have front and rear roll stopper as solid. Which only really has me shaking at lights. But nothing infuriating.
 
I've got Ralliart Solids too, should probably be less harsh than poly ones.
 
I've front and rear solid mad poly mounts. Car shakes on idle, but its mad, not a big difference once youre above 2k prm, so no issues really otherwise.

thanks for the input in getting madpoly cross member lower engine mounts as my OEM ones are split. can't wait for the more raw feel.
 
just to update, i wish i got the street series, or went with a sikaflex modded one, as the solid poly unit's are way too stiff for a street car

I purchased the MadPoly fully solid/race mounts, and using more than 1 unit causes the car to vibrate excessively (cant see out of the rear view mirror, screws and nuts undo themselves, extra strain on the engine/gbox/drivetrain). Fantastic for a 80% race/20% street car, terrible for anything less

what about just the crossmember mounts on their own with mad Polly mounts is that okay ?
 
I have solid (not mad poly) front and rear mounts and even that shakes a fair amount. Steering wheel and mirror vibrate a lot on idle. Can't imagine how much worse mad poly would be
 
I have silkaflexed filled stock engine mounts. Not a lot of vibration, is nice to drive.

I ran 3 Mad Poly engine mounts and my god the whole car shook at any rpm. Granted the engine had 0 movement. But for daily driving it's horrendous lol
Rear view mirror was useless. And the vibration traveled through the whole car lol

I'm talking about the cross member mounts not the engine bay ones
