Default JDM B16 in CRX questions about Clutch and Mounts

Well.. I currently have cheapo Avid Racing mounts that I got on Egay. The 2 motor mounts are still damn good after a year of beating.. However, the tranny mount is on its way out the door. So, ive been considering a few options here.. Within the next 2 weeks im ordering an ACT 6 puck clutch with a Heavy Duty pressure plate and a Fidanza Lightweight flywheel. Are there any mounts out there better then the next? If not I was leaning towards ordering a set of Place Racing mounts.. I kinda like where they make the motor sit. As it is now, the Avid mounts make the motor sit LLOWWW to the ground. My tranny is 2 fingers off the ground with 15" Si Wheels wrapped with 205/50 Azenis.

Cliffs:: Are there any mounts out there better then the next to go with a 6puck clutch/lightweight flywheel combo?

Get Hasport, they have lifetime warranty and they are great. I used to have Place Racing and the car vibrated a lot, plus I heard Place Racing is out of business.

get the has mounts (life time warr.)
and you can choose the bushings you want
soft, med, or hard

i have the same clutch and fly you are getting
i dont envy you at all
had the same set up for 2 years now
are you making almost 300 whp?
if not why in the hell do you want a 6 puck un sprung?

its your car but if you like to drive it daily i would recomend a less harsh combo.

if you are determined to get that clutch, try a flywheel that weighs a little more (9-12lbs)
it will make for much smoother off idle accleration

otherwise i would reccomend a 4 puck "sprung" with med duty pressure plate and a 6-7 lbs fly.

on the other hand, if this is not your daily driver, you dont plan on ever loaning it to your girlffriend, or you drag race ALOT, disreguard everything i said you made the right decision! lol

ps place racing is out of business (but you can still find their products floating around)

good luck

I do dragrace a lot ;]

I plan on trying for 220whp all motor

I've driven a friends car with a 6 puck.. You definetaly have to know how to drive the car. Thats why I like it.. Random idiots can't drive it ( not that I lend my car to bums ). Not only that, but I like the sound the tranny makes :]
