ES motor mount inserts for EK w/gsr swap...I searched!!!
I searched for over an hour and could not find exactly what I needed so now I am posting. My shop told me that I needed new motor mount inserts for my 2 front lower mounts. They said to get the ones that are from a 96-00 civic because they utilized my stock mounts. So I have no problems with the front two.
As for the rear mount though...which mount should I use?? I will purchase the 96-00 civic mount inserts for the front two and should I purchase the 99-00 si rear mount insert from Prothane since you can buy separately from them??
Also...would it be a big deal if I changed out only the front 2 mount inserts and not the rear??...would it vibrate like crazy??
Thanks in advance for all your help!!

if you are still using your original 98 mounts, you will only need the es kit made for 96-00 sohc. unless you are using 99-00 mounts (dont know why you would), then you will need 99-00 si insterts.
it shouldnt vibrate too crazy. i was using the same setup (96-00 sohc inserts) w/ hcp driver side mount on my 97 ex w/ b18c. didnt vibrate too crazy.

so i am going to buy the 96-00 civic inserts for the mounts...
so my question is will it be really bad if i just replace the 2 lower mounts and not the rear mount?? or do i need to replace that one as well??
what will be the disadvantage if i dont replace the rear one??
thanks
