I have teamed up with Powerflex for a run of videos!

Where I can, I will add a link to each for the UK and Australian customers. I believe the rear motor mount is a UK only product or special order from Powerflex AU and not listed on their site.

I have been speaking to Powerflex both in England and here in Australia and struck a nice little partnership and was able to get some of their high quality parts that I have been eyeing off for a while.

The Rear Motor Mount with purple bushes which I hope will be better for track days and night at Sydney Dragway.

The rear beam to chassis purple bushes. I have been reading good things about these and hope they compliment the Whiteline Rear Sway Bar in keeping the rear end stiff and predictable.

Next on the list was the upper engine mount. My mount is soft and I get the dreaded squeak when cold. I hope the Powerflex mount insert will help stiffen it back up and extend the life of the mount.

You should do all 3 mounts at once ideally so the upper transmission mount featured in this video was a must for me. Again, hoping to extend the life of the standard mount which like the other, just isn't up to the job long term for the ST.

My new custom exhaust sometimes gets its rattle on after a good drive. The rear hangers were changed over by the exhaust shop for some stiffer ones but the ones in the middle are still the standard hangers with over 80,000km on them now so I got one Powerflex hanger to help stiffen that up too.
