DTS was as far as I am concerned the best mod I did to my S4 and I have pretty much done it all.

i thinks if the transmission was to move backwards and forwards the engine would have to be moving too..if that was the case the fan would smash into the rad and there would be big prob,s..even with a w$nked gearbox mount it dnt move forward or backward..
and as for the snub mount its there to stop movement in the direction of rotation not really forward movement..it rests in an oval cup which is not a tight fit and allows for slight movement in an inertia type way..
but hey dnt listen to me..i cut a f^cking hole in my bonnet.. :audibash:
