I've got an s14 and had an extra s13 diff that my friend welded for me. I've been on that for a while and I really really like it, but it's rough at low speed and i'm not talking about the chirping at all but I'm thinking because its solid mount and has no bushing where it mounts to my subframe would this increase the roughness? I've also got a welded up s14 diff and am wondering if this is better to use because of the bushings?

thanks

yes the solid mounts will transmit more noise and vibration. as long as you can stand the i would stick with the s13 dif.
