Finally pulling out the y7 from my hatch and will be installing a B16a2. It was a nice Craigslist find for $1000. Full swap minus ecu and mounts.

Anyways... I'll be running the stock SI ECU until I can get some more money for a chipped P28/s300.

On to the mounts... I do not want stock SI mounts, looking for something a little stiffer and a little nicer looking. What do you think about Drop engineering mounts?

Thanks!

I would never spend
320 dollars for those??????

60 dollar inserts work for me just fine

blowededup

That's the MSRP... usually the actual price you pay from a distributor will be a little cheaper.

$60 inserts? Where? Are you talking about the ES inserts?

These??? Is that's what you are talking about, those are NOT for the motor mounts, but rather the driver/passenger/rear torque mounts.

could try hasport or innovative too.

unless you just like these. never heard about them good or bad so idk. might as well give it a shot.

I have checked into Innovative and Hasports, too. Tons of feedback on both of those companies throughout the forum.

Maybe I will have to be the guinea pig, huh?

Anyone else by chance? I saw that you can get different color inserts for the mounts themselves if you don't like the green.

Those mounts look a little shaky

canadaek

nice looking welds though

ek ridah

hasport FTW u can never go wrong with em

nus_dogg

Try Hasport like others mentioned. Can't go wrong with them.

I dont trust those mounts.. a year later the bushings will probably start to tear.. I say go hasport billets.. .

blowededup

How so?

After talking about with a buddy of mine, he reminded me about a year or so ago he ordered Hasports for his EG, they sent him the wrong part twice! Eventually, they did get it right. If anything, I would be staying away from them. Caused my buddy an additional month of downtime.

Are we all hasport fanbois?!?! LOL j/k guys. raid, why do you think that the bushings will tear within a year? J/w

97civic02

innovative all the way

godzillaeg

THERE IS NOTHING LIKE HASSPORT ONLY THE BEST

97civic02

innovatives r just as good as hasport for less money...ppl just get caught up in the name "hasport"

300whpej

innovative and hasport offer lifetime replacements iirc, but what do i know, im running stock teggy mounts in my eg

cleansi

i like oem with energy inserts most of the others make the car vibrate a lil too much...

just my 2 cents

raidacaipo

not they are not.. my friend had some with a built b20vtec motor and the bushings already gave out after about a year or two..

I had my hasport billet mounts for about 5 years already.. still good and it been through so many swaps

blowededup

Like I said, I will be staying away from Hasport as my buddy had a really bad experience with them which I would rather not go through.

If Innovative/Hasport/Drop are all offering lifetime warranties, that shouldn't be a concern when making my decision. I'm sure all of them offer great customer service. Anyone have comments on that?

Show me what you are talking about. I was unaware you could get inserts for the hydraulic driver's side mount in an EK. I think you have engine mounts confused with the torque mounts that ES supplies inserts for.

Jimster480

you can get ebay mounts. I have a combination of stock mounts with ES bushings and ebay mounts.

Red_Army

staying away from a company that has a great following for a reason because one buddy had a little issue is a little childish. but if you won't solely on that go innovative or drop.

LOL... Those look hideous. No warranty, durometer information etc etc No offense, but I'll pass. Thanks for the link though.
