I know the gt4 has dynamic transmission mounts, but I haven't heard mention of the dynamic engine mounts like on gt3.. Are those absent/unnecessary on a mid-engine car?

Essentially the dynamic mounts are in the same place in both cars. What's the difference? The location of that engine and transmission are flipped in the 911 versus the Cayman.

The good news is... BGB Racing has been doing 3.8l swaps in Caymans for years, and the gear box's have held up very well even on track!

All the sport button does is activate Auto Rev Matching, it doesn't sharpen throttle response or change any mapping like in the GTS. If you want to heel-toe, don't press it.

Please correct me if I am wrong.
