Does this look like bad motor mounts?
Made a video below. Car is in drive while I hold on the brakes and rev the engine a few times. I see some movement but wasn't sure if this was within tolerance or "you gotta change those".

When you eventually replaced the engine mount and 100K miles is guaranteed it has sunken........... you use that as a reference to how smooth the engine vibration is into the car.
No need to do rev+in-gear, simply by touching your steering wheel at idle you can tell a very good mount to a slowly aging mount, let alone an aged mount.

Haha, yeah been reading about people swapping them multiple times from driving aggressively, never mind doing it once at 100k!
Probably going to do those black series mounts soon. I'm already a few grand into the car, might as well keep going. Maybe an upgraded suspension as my last big project then just drive the ***** out of it.
