i was advised by Mike R ages ago to use vibra technics engine mounts but leave the gearbox mount STANDARD if you like to keep your fillings in the place

yep, engine mounts only and std g/b mount

edit: ps, would it not have been slightly obvious that you would get some noise/vibration in the car?

the originals are made of rubber for just thos reasons, so when you remove the damping values of rubber and replace it with solid metal, you are going to get the issues that you have

i fitted very solid mounts to an XR2 years ago, was the same... very hard and noisey and did vibrate a lot - but fuck me it was tons better and responsive
