Car: Blue Quattro (400++bhp ;)) | ***NEW, Fabia vRS Dog bone mount*** Thanks to the good people at Viba Technics we have now had a dog bone mount made up for the Fabia, Polo and Ibiza platform cars, Its a direct fit to the car, so no fiddley bushes to change, just 4 bolts
I have been running the prototype one on my car for the last couple of months, and i must say, the differance is un believable,
Gearshifts are so much cleaner, and traction when leaving the line is alot better.
They will be released in mid September so will be avalible to buy from us from then,
Prices are being discussed and i will post them up on here asap.
Heres some pics of the OEM mount
And the new Viba Technics mount,

Car: Race Blue Octavia (Approximately 200bhp) | Re: ***NEW, Fabia vRS Dog bone mount*** It mounts on the back of the engine and to the chassis. It's stabiliser mounting really to absorb some of the twist in the engine when engaging drive. | |

Car: Race Blue Octavia (Approximately 200bhp) | Re: ***NEW, Fabia vRS Dog bone mount*** One slight side effect of such mods is slightly more vibration in the cabin and a bit more 'road feel' through the floor.
How is yours in that department Luke? | |

Car: Blue Quattro (400++bhp ;)) | Re: ***NEW, Fabia vRS Dog bone mount*** Its not too bad really, you can feel the differance, and when i first put it in, it was quite harsh but after a week or 2 it seemed to settle down, and it feels fine (bearing in mind i have a solid flywheel and that gives off more vibrations)

Car: Silver vRS (218 BHP + 349 lbs/ft) | Re: ***NEW, Fabia vRS Dog bone mount*** Would you be kind enough to let me know as soon as you have one available to send to me, as my box needs to come off anyway, and my dogbone mount is a bit tired. I'll take one dependant on price.
And if I like it as much as the ARB, I might even write a glowing review for your site again hahaha.
