bracket is part number 7700845018 £16.01 + vat

rubber mount is part number 7700801543 £29.90 + vat

based on a C53D 1.8 16V R19

Why fit these though ??

well alot of people have been having issues with the driveshafts and engine rocking Matt, this bracket was used by the rally boys and firms the engine up.

TBH - i want to be on the safe side....im driving the car harder and harder and mods are starting to happen....so best to upgrade now and forget about it.

Did u get them 2 silver wrx's i emailed u pal yesterday ???

The R19 one doesn't fit, you need a 1.1 night&day one.....................well i did anyway!

ive put a 19 gearbox in my phs1 valver and it fits 'like a glove' and it looks like it will serve a purpose :D

yes i fitted a R19 mount to mine, all that has to be done is move the pas pipe down the R19 mount uses the hole the pas pipe uses! so far so good, solved my box mount snapping problems !(the actual top box mount not dog bone, broke 2 already!)

oh im pretty sure the 172 uses this mount as std to help cure same problems!
