If you search and look though all the topics on the mounts there is good about both so it kinda seems that its a matter of personal preferance but just do a search and there are a ton of posts and you will be able to make an informed decision on what you wanna do.

I am going to go with HASport mounts when I do my swap cause I have seen them and they look good but like I said look around and make your own informed decision.

HCP is good to 'get the swap in'. But I wouldn't recommend it.

I would DEFINITELY recommend HASports.

I back 'em up big time for their technology and research with mounting motors. 'nuff said.

ive had both, and i would have to say that hasport does a better job of the swap. Hcp will work just as good, but the quality of the construction of the hasport mounts is more reassuring

Man, I see these posts like every other week.... check around and you'll see similar posts. As for the HCP mounts vibrating, no there is no vibrations when the motor is installed correctly. The design of the urethane helps reduce the vibrations and still applies power to the ground. As for bushings tearing, it's because the rear tranny bracket tears into the bushing (whether it's installed incorrectly or the bracket itself is bent or whatever), but they're warrantied. As for which is better, you're going to get personal opinions from everyone. If you really want to know, HCP will have some new stuff out here shortly and I'll post it up on Honda Tech to show everyone. If you want us to tell you which kit to get, get whatever kit you want to and what makes you feel happy.

HCP here. Good quality, IMO. Good fit, no vibration. Never tried the HASport, but for the price difference, HCP works beautifully. No compliants. got them from Newman. good deal, good seller, fast shipping, and help afterwards.

I have heard it all and still I am an HCP fan, not that the other mounts are bad, but I like them. I have used them in my cars and did other swaps I have done and they are nice, I did 1 eg h22 this past week and a ef b18 last week and used HCP! There is no vibration like everyone is claiming(at least not in all the swaps I have seen or done) and the tearing rear mount as newman said is from incorrect install or incorrect/damaged rear mount.
