For over 30 years Vermont SportsCar (VSC) has specialized in the design and manufacture of world class rally and rallycross cars. VSC has been the technical partner to Subaru of America since 2005 and has spearheaded the Subaru brand’s highly successful motorsports programs in the USA, now under the guise of Subaru Motorsports USA. Additionally, VSC is the shop behind the latest Subaru Gymkhana vehicle builds with Travis Pastrana. VSC Performance was born from the team's desire to offer aftermarket parts with the same attention to detail, fit, finish and performance as VSC's competition cars. Via VSC Performance the team now offers a carefully curated selection of premium motorsports-inspired products engineered for street use.
Remove play from your drivetrain under hard acceleration with the VSC Performance Pitch Stop Mount. This simple part replaces the OEM plastic component with a reinforced billet aluminum piece. Ideally paired with VSC Performance motor mounts, this will reduce movement of the engine and improve driver feel and performance.
Note:
Firmer mounts can have a tendency to increase NVH (Noise, Vibration, and Harshness) which may make the vehicle less comfortable to drive.
Alert:
This upgrade is not recommended without consideration to the engine mounts and transmission mount. Without balancing the reinforcement, a pitch stop alone could potentially damage the firewall. We recommend pairing with our motor mounts and transmission mounts.
Installation Instructions:
My car definitely feels a little more responsive. I will look to pair the rest of the mounts soon.
Sammie,
Thank you for sharing your 5 Star Review and added pics of the VSC Performance Pitch Stop Mount for various Subaru models. We are pleased to hear that you have noticed a difference in the responsiveness of your car after installing the pitch stop mount. Your intention to pair the rest of the mounts, soon, will provide even more responsiveness and performance! Enjoy your upgrades, and thank you for choosing Subimods!

Its just as light as it is strudy. I would argue its no heavier than what it replaces. I have never installed one before but I can distinctly hear my engine now and it sounds pretty awesome. I would describe the sound as someone playing the engine sounds through a poor speaker in the cabin. Though at a cruise of say 50-70 mph it goes away. I cant objectively say I notice strong diffrences on my stock car. But, I can be sure more power is put down to the ground rather than spent moving the engine itself.
Aiden,
We appreciate your 5 Star Review! The VSC Performance Pitch Stop Mount is designed to provide improved stability and power transfer by reducing engine movement. While it is lightweight and sturdy, some users have reported increased engine noise inside the cabin after installation. This can be perceived as both positive and negative, as it allows you to hear the engine's sounds more clearly, but may also introduce some unwanted cabin noise. It's worth noting that the effects of the pitch stop mount may vary depending on the specific vehicle and its modifications. Overall, the mount aims to enhance power delivery by minimizing engine movement, contributing to improved performance.
Regards,
Quality product. Took it off after 24 hrs. The amount of engine noise transfer to the cabin is ridiculous.
Cesar,
Thank you for sharing your experience with the VSC Performance Pitch Stop Mount for your WRX/STI. While it is known for improving engine response and reducing drivetrain movement, it seems the increased engine noise transfer to the cabin wasn't to your liking. If you decide to explore other modifications or have any questions about your vehicle, feel free to reach out. Your feedback is valuable in helping you make the best choices for your car upgrades.
