Oh well.
Here is a link to your build thread: https://www.myg37.com/forums/build-t...37s-fi-tt.html
Put it in your sig line, and it it will be everywhere you post.
You wrote this in your thread:
Z1 Urethane Trans and Motor Mounts: Love them. The slop is completely taken out of the shifter. There is almost no extra NVH introduced into the cabin either. You may feel bumps in the road slightly more. If you are worried about how harsh they are, don't, they are great.
I can only imagine what it's like to drive your Coupe. That's one seriously impressive build.

CBE with ART test pipes and 2 turbos. When I got it back, the exhaust was definitely louder and noticeable. Now that it has some miles my tolerance has either adjusted or it has quieted down. I am sure the turbos help quiet it down a bit when not in boost. To be honest, even though I can tell the mounts have stiffened things up (shifter not moving much on accel, motor not torqueing the front of the car so much), the extra vibrations are hardly noticeable to me. Either they haven't increased much or I just don't care about them.

I'm young and stupid.... Ish... And I live in the high band rpms on the weekend and I still love my z1 Trans mount. I love my sts too! I'm super glad I went with the twm. I think it's perfect... Hopefully I'll get around to installing my rjm assembly this weekend too. That would be great. Then all i need is a clutch set up and a HD csc and my drivability should be cherry.

According to Z1, the mount is "height adjustable", and the bushing can be swapped out. Perhaps that's some kind of locking bolt, designed to keep things in place? That would explain the unoccupied, threaded hole right next to it.
IDK man... unscrew it and see what happens.

I'm currently on page 10 reading through this thread. But I believe the cement truck sound is the throwout bearing in the tranny. If it's noisy and you still have warranty infiniti will swap out trannies. It's not a part to be replaced for some reason.
When I was looking for my car came across a few that had their trannies replaced for noise.
Mine actually got louder after the rjm clutch pedal swap I guess because it actually fully let go on the pressure plate and or clutch.

You know, maybe it's there just to hold the components in position for installation? I think a simple email to Z1 would get your answers.
And I think your previous comment about the noise in your transmission was intended for another thread.

So... Furlow bought it new, immediately uninstalled and sold it to Lego, who immediately uninstalled and sold it to ToXic?
LOL, wow. That's one busy little mount. There's a joke in here somewhere, I'm sure.
