Alright well I have a 1992 civic si hatch with a Gsr swap built head n other things but it came with avid solid motor mounts I was told thing is there stiff as Hell everything in car shakes even loose change in door coin pockets annoys the Hell out of me so I'm looking for something better for daily driving and not stiff as Hell iv rode in a car with innovative mounts very much like stock any mounds you guys would reccomend for my car?

Just run some stock GSR mounts, and get a brace from NRG. All the poly mounts buzz like crazy, and are "stiff as hell" as you put it. The NRG brace will take away alot of the movement from the motor and actually not introduce much vibration. Try it. You can even get the mounts at the junkyard for very little if you're on a budget.

You answered you're own question.

Innovative mounts.

Hard race mounts are another alternative. Hard rubber, but stiffer than OEM. It's about the only compromise between OEM and Poly out there.

Alright well found some good mounts at a local junkyard will put on tomarow n see how they do

juanhda9

Alright so mounts I picked up were for a da integra wrong ones which sucks but took them Back. So I was reading around and some ppl say that itr motor mounts are a bit stronger then Gsr mounts is that true n if so would they fit my car?

98civdx

Stock, yes, the bushing are harder durometer..

They may be pretty hard to find used, and likey expensive.

Libertariat

You'd be a lot better off getting Hardrace. Great bushings, cheap, softer than poly, harder than OE.

98civdx

Honestly, i'd say you're right. It would likely be the same price.


I have seen ITR mounts for $250

If you use stock mounts, your engine will be sitting a little higher then aftermarket and cause a "pimple" in the hood, just a warning for you

Well for b series engines in a non b car..

I don't think Hardrace makes mount kits for swaps do they? Otherwise, as a 5 year user, I would say get them without question. Hard rubber over Poly any day.

Libertariat

I don't see the difference. A 99-00 Si B-series mounts should work for a 96-00 civic with a d-series.

As far as I understand, they are swap mounts.

Damn, now I'm not sure.

Wasn't sure. Swaps are not something I'm real familiar with.

They're the same, but the OP has a '92 hatch. OP buy mounts for a '94 - '01 Integra. If you use integra torque mounts you'll need to cut a little square tab off the bottom of the frame rails for them to lay flat.

juanhda9

So if i wanted to get the hardrace I would need the integra ones? Did resarch n ppl really like these mounts I'm thinking of buying

Libertariat

yeah. I got off topic trying to figure out hard race. I sent them an email to clarify.
The description for 96-00 civics doesn't mentioned the type of swap.

Libertariat

For anyone who is curious, I heard back from Hardrace and the 96-00 "EK" mounts are indeed for a b-series.

juanhda9

Well I didn't go with the hardrace because I read somewhere there just as good as stock n don't want to wait on shipping n have wrong fitments so just got stock itr passanger and drivers mount stuck with the avid rear torque mounts also have avid front torque mount inserts n I like it way better don't have any shake almost as if I had a d series n I went with itr mounts because I have an itr.

Libertariat

I've read this 4 times and have no idea what you said. Run on much?

Just as good as stock? They're stiffer than stock. I can attest to this first hand. 5 year owner.

94EG8

D and B-series are exactly the same as far as the rubber mounts are concerned in a '96 - '00

How's the vibration marc? close to stock in that regard?

grumblemarc

It's near stock but also stiffer. It's hard to explain really. I had an NRG engine brace that transferred more vibration than these do. Once I installed these I had no need for it any more.

juanhda9

So what ones would fit a b18c5 my friend wants to try them out on his car he has the same issue I did he has it in a eg also

94EG8

Integra (unless he's using a B16A post mount, then order for a civic)
