    I've got some spare P-Plates in the boot, if you'd like... That being said, red ones would probably suit better.

    I have a similar dog bone insert to firm up the motor - keen to see what it does if it causes intrusive cabin noise
    Don't have sticky tires
    I'm running 8" wide (compared to 7.5" stock)

    Not loosing traction via controlled use of the gas peddle is what I'm doing to avoid the problem

    whiteline have a similar void filler for the dogbone bush.

    it works well, but at low rpm I can feel the motor more, and in reverse its worse.

    that said, its manageable, and you just get used to it.

    I dare you to bring a cap to Heathcote.
    I'll provide the doof doof.

    Yeah - given that I've just taken the car to Stage II
    I doubt these [minor] negatives will be an issue in my case

    These mounts are for the connection between the transmission and subframe so doubt they do much for axle tramp.
    Sticky tyres may not solve the problem.

    Higher spring rates is usually the solution. For FWD more caster/anti-lift helps too.

    And turn the TC off and use your right foot.

    Also the so called launch control only works in S and manual with the TC off, not D.
