RE: shuddering on hard accel
TheVF-Engineering rear engine (a/k/a dogbone or pendulum) mount should noticeably reduce wheel hop.

A less expensive (and also less effective) option would be the Neuspeed or the ECS Tuning insert.

The VF mounts work very well at getting rid of wheel hop, but your tires will still spin like mad if you floor it in first or second gear. The DB insert helped a little, but the VF was MUCH better. Just be aware that those mounts will give you a little more motor noise in the cabin, so there is a trade off. But, I haven't had any issues with the DB or VF mounts, RSB, or coilovers at the shop. They are cool for the most part, but it really depends on the dealership.
