Tranny and Motor mounts
I see alot of ppl with tranny and motor mounts, does it do that much of a difference? And does the car actually become quicker or does it just get alot better handling?

It's great for cutting your 60ft times at the track. Also for the SS/SC it give a real piece of mind because it eliminates wheel hop which can easily break and axle or crack the trans case. They also firm up the shifts.
I personally think it's a great mod, but you will get some extra vibration in the cabin after you install them. It settles down quite a bit after a few hundred miles but with the AC there is always some vibes.

Is the vibration very noticable? How much would it cost me for all the mounts

More with trans mounts that engine mounts. I put my engine mount on and got a little vibration while the trans mounts gave it a lot. I notice a huge difference in shifting and launching.

Having snow in the rims just totally unbalances everything and the car shakes like a bastard, usually happens when you go drifting (if you call pulling the e-brake in the snow drifting) lol

it's not that terrible, as long as you're expecting them. and you get used to them as well. i never understood people that complain about them, you know before you do the install that you'll have some extra vibes. it's like putting on an aftermarket exhaust, and then *****ing that it's louder than stock. makes no sense.
that being said, it's WELL worth it to do this simple mod.
