I use stock ones and I usually change them every 4-5 track days.

Got febi too, from pete. I asked him about this a while back. And he said g40 top mounts are crap as it is, let alone lowered, harsher springs and being hammered
You have to view top mounts as servicible items now lol

I use febi ones from Pete, usually replaced annually which is 2-5k depending on car. So cheap and quick treat them as serviceable

I do have some bonrath camber ones for when I build the 3rd car but that will be a faster track orientated car. Been thinking about salzmann top mounts for that too but will try the bonrath ones out first
