S50 is down for a while. One of my injectors started leaking fuel, so I pulled the fuel rail off and noticed every single pintle cap except one was gone. Wasn't like that when I installed them. Guess that's what I get for buying a set of "rebuilt" S52 injectors, fuck non-OE pintle caps. Sigh...'72 2002 pickup | '88 M5 | '89 330is | '89 M3 | '01 Z3M | '11 328xi-t

Black late E28 535 mounts, stock E30 trans mounts (or E21.) It's what I use in my car, worked great for almost 100k miles.
I don't care what anyone says, poly is nice, but carries tons of vibrations. If it's a daily, go with rubber.'72 2002 pickup | '88 M5 | '89 330is | '89 M3 | '01 Z3M | '11 328xi-t

Poly motor mounts + rubber transmissions mounts doesn't vibrate too bad totally acceptable in a DD if you are under the age of 40. If you can afford AKG's get them, they mount through the correct hole and are a direct fit, no shims or guess work. E28 Mounts are installed into the "guide pin" hole but if you are on a budget go for the E28s, but id recommend you reinforce the subframe since the a prone to tearing.Originally posted by 2man View PostComment

Worth every penny, I have IE poly rear subframe and trailing arms bushings (uninstalled) but I am going to buy AKG instead. You get what you pay forOriginally posted by 2man View PostComment

true, probably going to buy the motor mounts and the aluminum caps for the transmission mounts. I already have some e21 mounts so I think that will be a good combo.Simon

Almost exactly what I used, minus I have E36 trans red poly with alum cups. You get a bit of vibration but not teeth shattering. Gives the car a more race car feel imoOriginally posted by 2man View Post

My one complaint about all poly is that I never know when my phone is vibrating. Between the mounts and my lukebox I miss 100% of my calls and txt's
