Actual motor mounts are hard to find for Ludes. Place racing makes them for Preludes.

Ha, Place Racing has been gone for a long time. Innovative Mounts just came out with full replacement mounts for 4th gens. I have ordered a set and am in the process of installing them. So far they're great and I'll put up some pics when I'm done and you can see if they look like they'll fit a 5th gen...

I got the black ones, which are right in the middle. The red is the weakest and grey the strongest...

Hawkze, is there more or less vibration with the black ones? Im thinking about getting those or the grey. Also, any weight savings?

google is your friend

http://www.innovativemounts.com/

i wonder why they neglected to make a front motor mount (its pretty important too)

and the urethane rating is a tad bit low (75) i have rollerblade wheels that are harder

but i guess they are trying to go for a little bit of livabilty

The vibration is less so far with the 2 side mounts installed than with the stock mounts and an NRG engine damper (I still need to do the rear mount). It feels pretty good.

The grey ones are basically a solid mount from what they said on the phone....I wouldn't do those unless it's a track car IMO.

The Innovative mounts weigh about the same as the stock mounts give or take a lb or so. The weight savings is going to be the loss of the front mount.

Once I get all 3 mounts installed I will ditch the front mount. I would have had to cut it up anyway to make room for turbo stuff so I jumped at the chance to get rid of it!

You pretty much have to take the IM off to do the rear mount, so I'm waiting for a weekend...
