yes the rubber bit is there ...
i mean as in no matter what you bolt the metal engine mount to either engine or car it wont line up with either the engine or the car pending on what you fixed it to if u get me?

LOL, it will make a huge difference. u need corsa rear box mount, corsa passenger side mount and modified drivers side mount. Corsa shafts or fancy ones with astra/cav inner cv's and outers with modded hubs.
