Considering I have them on my BE, yes. Make sure these are the Group N mounts and not just the regular STi ones.

group N?

[Airgne]

well i just bought this. 1 x Beatrush 5-Speed Shifter Bushings, 1 x STI WRX Group N Engine Mounts, 1 x STI WRX 5MT Transmission GroupN Mount, and 1 x TechnaFit STi Stainless Steel Clutch Line. now im up to 1450 on my clutch job.

they work fine in my 98' With a 93 motor....Subaru's are legos....

group N?

Group N is the parts the Group N (production class) rally cars use. For mounts, they're made of the stiffest durometer rubber that Subaru makes.

ah ok. thank you for that.

i have the sti motor mounts on my BE. i got them from the dealer.

just had mine replaced with the group-n mounts and dogbone stop-pitch mount, mechanic said they were the biggest bitch in the world to get on, but once they were on he said he's never seen such little engine movement on a subaru, and he's a semi-retired subaru tech

I didn't find the install of the motor/tranny mounts very hard - though I did have to call on the help of a couple friends to help push the motor back into position while I guided it from below so the threads would line up with the crossmember.

Yeah, getting them off is not the problem, lining the engine back up with the new mounts installed is the hardest part - it's a two-man operation at the very least (one to push/wiggle/curse :grin: , other one to spot).

got the mounts and shifter bushing changed today. holy crap it is beautiful now. i recommend this change to anyone. if you get the mounts and try to put in a BE there is a little moding needed.

The little bumps on the crossmember?

the mounts came with a bracket. had to shave about 1/8in off those to fit.
