NSC engine damper

With all the talk of different dampers made for the RA, i liked to say that lancers/mirages also have a damper avaliable for them as well. As of now the Northstar damper is getting rave reviews from the RA guys and i was just hoping that maybe some es/oz rally guys could chime in and share their reviews with the evom community.

I say it is a great product....i just got it installed on sunday and it really made fairly noticable difference when shifting gears. It greatly reduces the wheel hop and gives less load to the suspensions. For some reason, it feels like it also improved the braking power.


For more reviews, you can chek out:

It does the job (functionally). But quality wise (asthetics) needs a little work.

i'd assume so. automatics usually have a different front motormount that's less adequate than a manual to soften up the shakes and shimmy of an auto tranny. anyone have a pic of an auto front mount? i could be wrong.

I've had mine for a little over two weeks now. God it's yummy. At $60 (installed in about 5 minutes by the NSC guys), it's a steal. The most noticeable thing is that my engine revs higher when I push it. Auto 02 ES.
