HASPORT MOUNTS after 5yrs of abuse.
I've had these mounts in my cars for a little over 5 years. They were originally in my 90 civic si. I did the b16 swap senior year in high school. Then I drove the car to college for 4 years. It mostly sat parked but I probably drove the car like 4-5 times out of the week. Junior year in college I totalled the Si in the snow and had to find a cheap shell. So I stumbled across a 88std model for $100, it was beat to hell and I shouldn't even of bought it, being broke in college sucked.
I swaped everything over into the new shell. Graduated from college last year and basically parked the car, considering I had a new daily driver. I still drove the car but maybe only like once a month if that. The 90 civic si and my 88 std is my autox car, so it has been threshed but not too much. I run hoosier slicks when I go autox but I haven't autox in a while due to not trusting the car. You will see what I mean later. I drag raced a couple of times, but nothing serious because I really don't care for it.
I noticed that when I would do full throttle pulls, it felt like the motor was jerking around in the engine bay. It also felt strange when I would autox and my lsd would rip me around a turn with the hoosiers. The car just didn't feel right and you see why........................

They have a lifetime warranty on their mounts. DAMN they don't even make those anymore. I say send them back and get the new billet ones.

The lifetime warranty will cover putting the newer, better designed, urethane into those mounts, no problem there..
Unfortunately, needing new urethane does not mean replacing the mounts with new billet ones, just the replacement of the urethane is all that is needed.

I think the cold weather climate might of been more abuse on the bushings. Me autox didn't help either.
