Are you after standard ones or uprated? We can supply the Vibra-Technics ones for 2WD. Let us know if you want a price.

Cheers

It's very rare for these to need replacing on a 2wd, so are you sure you need to? I even had standard ones on my 515bhp Sapphire...

More likely to be a poorly adjusted turbo damper

Possibly, but I still think it is the damper. If you remove it, it will get worse

. Swap the one off the RS500 onto it and see if it gets any better

my damper setup is erm not standard anymore

i have a bailey damper and thats connected to the turbo via a bracket that i had to have made up. i got the exhuast set up a while ago and the vibiration went but after a few ays came back.. not sure what it could be. is there anyway i can check the engine mounts?
