I would like to lend a big "Thank You" to the lists for all the input on the
strut mounts.
At this point, I am very dissatisfied with Blau's overall service and
intergrity as a business and regret that they seem to be the only source for
certain parts and on occasion they actually have the lowest prices.  As a
matter of principle, I would probably spend the extra $100 for Sierra mounts
even if they are no better in terms of performance.
I will have to admit I have NEVER heard of anyone using Sierra's mounts in a
street app.  This tempts me somewhat to try them to be the first to do it.
If I can find Ur-Q mounts on the internet at a decent price, I will have
some real consideration to do.

Quick question on basic suspension principle:  How does the flexibility of
the strut mount affect the handling?  I can obviously see that comfort may
be compromised with the ultra-rigid mount.  How does the minimal vertical
and lateral deflection at the mount affect traction/alignment/handling?

Thanks again guys!
