Does any one know if any one makes a set of uprated gearbox mounts for E30's?

Mine need replacing and just wondering if there is anything between the rubber ones and all out aluminium ones?

There are polly one's avalible from powerflex and a few other's. But I would not bother. They will do the same as the alu one's but won't last as long.

I kept with o/e

Poly urethene ones from Ireland Engineering are good, I wouldn't worry about their longevity - they'll outlast the car!

i fit a pair of ruff auto technik ones to my old e36. ended up buying it back for breaking and swapped the mounts into the e30. feels a bit sharper but it does increase cabin noise from the engine/exhaust/gearbox.

E21 mounts, they are twice as strong as the E21 only uses one mount
