As far as I know Alex, that is true. It is the same as the ESi.
I think as Rob mentioned, as long as you are not beating on it, you'll be fine. When my wheels start to break loose under WOT, I just let off the gas and it's fine.

It bolts on, yeah, but that's about it. Your entire engine/tranny will only be held up by 1 mount.
On a 1G, we have 3 of the engine mounts on the engine block (one at the back, one at the front, and one by the timing belt) and the 4th is on the transmission. On a 2G, only the timing belt side engine mount is physically bolted to the engine. The other 3 are all on the tranny. So if you try to bolt on a 1G trans on a 2G, you will come to realize that you have no mounting holes/brackets for the front and rear mounts on the transmission.
Kinda for the same reason you can't just drop in a 2G 7-bolt in a 1G. There is no place on the block to bolt on the front and rear mounts.
