Default CRX Motor Mount Question (Not Swap)

I have a d16a6 running 10 psi. Its a 89 and the mounts are stock and done. My question is what should I do. Ive seen the write ups on the homemade mounts with 3m sealer but would like to find a more perm solution. Is energy suspension mount inserts worth it or not? Any imput appreciated

I have done the 3M window weld trick to 2 of my mount on my A6. My car rattles like my brothers b16 crx with hasport mounts. If you use the 3M make sure to where gloves. It does not wash and I learned the hard way. I don't know how much the 3M tirck helps with stopping wheel hop because I have not driven my car since I have put the 3M in.

I have heard that the insert are just a cover up to cracking motor mounts.

I have done the tranny mount in front of the engine and the passenger's side mount. I have not decided if I'm going to find a mount that is crack free to replace the passenger's side mount or if I will put 3M in the driver's side mount. I will be driving most of the time in the city and all the vibration might getting annoying.


Sry. I don't have any pics. I knew I should have taken some.

Have you ever been in a car that has really stiff mounts?

^ Very informative article on Durometer/filling motor mounts. Most of my driving is generally city driving as well so when I get my car back this summer/go FI, I'm planning to fill my mounts with 60 duro stuff .

*edit* forgot to add...if you sit a lot at idle/lower RPM's in a car with hard mounts -- yes, the vibration/rattling gets really old, really fast.
