A few years back i was talking to a chap who prepped a pair of 968 race cars.
One of which won the PCGB championship.
So it must have been done right...
He was telling me of a gearbox mount,[The M030 mount]. Apparently they were supplied on the 968 turbo,s, only...So thats obviously why its a NLA part....
These mounts are supposed to stop , or at least reduce the amount of "swing" the gearbox does under cornering,,, Swing i say, as the box is hung / mounted at the top.
I also spoke to the driver who won the championship + he told me that it did reduce this swinging....As hed driven the car with both types of mount...
Apparently it makes the car feel more "secure" on fast corners when youve got some directional change , mid corner,, If you "get my drift"....
One corner which it realy helps on is the Cranner curves at Donnington Park. If youve ever driven it youl understand....Or watched some BTCC racing there... Its a FAST downhill right left sweep...A REAL rollercoaster.....[/quote]
Let me know if you succeed in finding some. I may join you.
