Re: Hasport mount kit vs. Mount inserts (JDMar)
Well I'll tell ya I have Hasport motor mounts and you know what.....too damn stiff! I mean great for a car that you're just gonna race and nothing else...but dude at idle my steering wheel and dash absorb all the motor vibration and whatever else is going on under that hood.....i know they are the best but just be ready for a car that sucks to be in when you are stopped.......
P.S. I love them though...good quality and looks great in the engine bay.

Hasport mount are the mounts to have. The have 3 grades of stiffness for your pleaser. street, street/strip, Race .
Stock mounts with inserts you are just covering up the problems .

Re: Hasport mount kit vs. Mount inserts (JDMar)
racing/track or street?
How much do you want to spend? If its a daily driver, just go for inserts, if you seriously track the car, go hasport. I went the cheap route and got the inserts. >=P

Mostly for the street but a fair amount of track time (drag). Im just tryin to get rid of some of this massive wheel hop. Idealy i wounldnt want to spend a **** load but if inserts arent worth it i would rather spend more money on something that would be better. By the way how do you like the inserts?

if you are trying to avoid wheel hop i would get a set of Jimfab traction bars. currently in my boosted EG I have inserts and the traction bars and I get zero wheel hope on the street or on the track.

i got the ES inserts. so far, i've only put in the front 2 lower torque mounts. it killed almost all the wheelhop from my b16. the motor does shake the coins in my coinpocket tho... i heard it's best to install all 3 inserts. the rear mount is a biatch to get to tho.

Re: Hasport mount kit vs. Mount inserts (JDMar)
I wondered bout this also as my friend's driver side mount basically imploded on itself and I figured that if it was time to change then why not upgrade? But looking at the prices from Hasport for just replacement mounts was ridiculous, I mean a swap mount kit I can understad but standard ones.......hell no. So we're either gonna go with ES or prothane in her civic or just replace the driverside with OEM. Money can be better spent somewhere else than extremely expensive and stiff standard mounts.

I had ES inserts & then swaped to Prothanes. I like the the stiffer Pros' but I'm hesitant to get the Hsports for fear of massive vibration. I only drive my R on weekends for trips so I guess it wouldn't be to bad being just a tad bit stiffer than they are now. But idle vibration can be something feirce!

Re: (HYREV2NR)
the inserts work bomb for me! they are very stiff themselves...have fun putting them in, lol, oh yeahi didn;t use the ones for the rear mount and the dash still vibrates like crazy...they are a pretty good bang for your buck.

Hasport makes quality mounts but their prices on replacement mounts are way too high. I am running prothane rear insert and 2 upper side mount inserts with energy suspension on the front 2 lower side mounts. Vibration is actually less than what I thought it was gonna be and it eliminated about 95% of my wheel hop. Motor mount inserts are gonna be your best bang for your buck. The motor in my car is about as stiff as it could get without solid mounts. Trust me i've tried to move it, it doesn't move. inserts get my

Re: (justinh595)
well guys i decided to get inserts, threw em in today and they are nice. jus did the torque mounts. wheel hop has been greatly reduced and ride comfort has been sacrificed. the car vibrates now and its gonna take some gettin use to but i think the pros out-weigh the cons

Glad to hear . I don't even notice the vibration anymore, you'll get used to it in a couple of days.
