Vr Manual Question

Hey guys im just wondering for all you 5 speed owners
when you are in either 1st or 2nd giving it a bit of go say 4k rpm
does the gearstick move about 3 - 4cm to the right?

is this normal engine/gearbox twist?
or you think the gearbox mounts or engine mounts have karked it?

any help would be good thanks

Stick ya head under it and see what the gearbox rubber mount is like.

yer it is normal to move a little i think from the torque of your engine, my worked 5 litre did it and the rubber was brand new, id be in 2nd doing about 3500RPM's and plant it the gear stick would move.............

Mine didnt move then my mate borrowed it and now it does the same and moves about 3 cms in 1st and 2nd...and i've noticed that in 1st and 2nd that if I take off my feet off the pedals and try and pull it out of gear it wont slip out but it will in 3rd 4th and 5th
WTF is going on...broken mount somewhere???
