 Seriously though, I wonder if I could somehow make one myself, or replace
 one of the stock rubber donuts with something solid(like aluminum or steel)
 and achieve the same results.  I don't know exactly what I'm talking about
 as I've never taken the mount apart or really seen what it looks like so I
 could be way off.  Then again, it'd probably be easier to just pay the $60
 and enjoy the hard work of others.
 
 Anybody got any ideas?

Actually, I do. :)

I swapped the mount with a '93 Corrado SLC mount ~ a year and a half ago. No 
more driveline slop (MUCH less, at any rate), easier shifting, etc. I 
understand these are kinda hard to come by now, so I got lucky in that a good 
friend of mine was upgrading to the Turn2, and he basically gave me his SLC 
mount. If you can find one, give it a try.
