i have a 95 civic with a d16z6. i am trying to install my enigne damper, which is made by NRG. i thought that it bolts up to the chasis and your motor mount. i found the part where it goes to the chasis but am having trouble with the motor mount part. the two holes on the mount look as if it is supposed to mounted to a different part of the motor. i am asking for anyone with pics of theirs installed or any input from anyone that has dealt with this product.

Didn't you get instructions with them? If not can we get a pic of what you have, and the engine itself. We may be able to figure it out by looking at the damper.

I think it attaches to a bolt on the engine.

95sloweg

would you happen to know which bolt?

i did get instructions but it only tells me how to adjust the pre-load. it came with 1inch pics of some set ups but they are blurry and in black and white, so i cant really see where it connects to the motor. I am currently working on uploading some pics.

95sloweg

Heres some pics. if you need more pics of diff angles let me know.

trustdestruction

not sure which bolt, i just remember seeing a picture of one installed on someones car and it looked like it was attached directly to the engine.

95sloweg

ill go out and play around with the braket.

trustdestruction

hmm, maybe it goes like this?

it could only be me but every one i see they go from the back of the head to the firewall

95sloweg

this is the bolt on the motor that i think it will bolt up to. would this even improve traction? its just reinforcing the mount.

95sloweg

if anyone thinks im wrong please let me know. if thats where it goes then it wont go on till i put my turbo set up in because ill be swapping out the mounts then.

boostedcivicsir

it looks to me like it is for a non ex engine mount with the 2 single studs. but i could be wrong. i dont use the engine dampers. im just pazy. i need solid mounts but dont feel like putting them in.

boostedcivicsir

i know you can barely see it but this is a normal civic mount, i had a z6 in my si but it has the mount with the 2 studs. not like the ex / gsr mount.

blueeg7

the mount is wrong, if you can get a motor mount out of a gsr. thats what i used. that damper bolted to my mount by the top end of the block if that makes any sence to you

95sloweg

so if i am comprehending this right. you guys are saying that the mount on the damper is made for a non ex motor mount. since my motor is an ex then ill have to change out that motor mount. i thought that all d series mount were the same.

95sloweg

your saying that you have the same exact damper that i have. and all you did was switch out that motor mount to a gsr side mount and it all bolted up right.

***i looked at your bottom link my set up looks just like the pic labeled del sol b16. its just that the holes dont line up correctly for the motor mount.***edited

Heres a pic of the mount that i think goes to the motor mount. number 1 goes to the damper and two and three go to the motor mount or somewhere on the motor. number three is about an inch higher than number two. this is why i find it hard to believe that it bolts up to my side motor mount.

blueeg7

wtf...this my be stupid but try trying the mount around so 1 is by 3 now...and yea i have the same damper.. and all B series mount are the same.. i think that is your problem...

95sloweg

so which number did the bolt from your damper go into the mount. its just eaiser to refer to the number on the pic so its eaiser to communicate even thought its weird.

tribexEJ1

lol i had the same problem, till this day i couldnt figuere out how to install it so its just sitting under my bed.

solsilum

Why does the damper even attach to the mount? Honestly, that doesn't seem to make sense. Can anyone testify that these even do anything cause I thought they went to the firewall.

blueeg7

ok the damper bolts to number 1 and 2 goes to the mount but 3 is trowing me off... wait where did you get the mount and damper from

95sloweg

i orderd the engine damper kit from weksauce. it came the nut/bolts and the mounts. number three is the hole that f's me up too. 1 and 2 go just fine but 3 f's it all up.

check it you see i have more pic.
