Definitely..I've had this happen on a couple other cars as well...no fun at all.
(Especially when it happens many hours away from home)

Cool; I ordered a set of the UUC ones as well to try out. (If they end up being identical, I can pawn them off on a friend).

The shifting and especially rev-match downshifting is very very nice; so I'm thinking/hoping these can provide that without a lot of NVH.

I also ordered the 1M right side engine mount, and the M3 rear diff mounts; so we'll see how rigid that makes things .
