You can get urethane engine mounts and suspension bushings to reduce it as well. The rods with stock bushings won't totally eliminate it.

Yeah to be honest if you are a hard core drag racing type driver, Urethane motor mounts or inserts will really help with that, also drag spec sprints and front suspension also help.
I don't like Urethane mounts personally, I think they are really for a straight drag racer, they cause a lot of excess vibration, and your motor needs to move that is why there is soft rubber bushings, I would recommend Hard rubber bushings if your car is a daily driver, this is the best compromise.

yeah, i was looking into polyurethane bushings, but i don't really want all that vibration and noise. i found a site with the z10 bars but they're 350 bucks. anybody know anywhere cheaper?
