looking to do this really soon, just wanted to know if i have to cut any of the old rubber out the fromt torque mounts and rear mount or if they just slide into place and stay with the little ties?

pictures of installed or installation would be awsome

thanks

 

The instructions are adequate. The rear mount is a pain, I don't have mine installed yet. The two front torque mounts aren't that bad, except for the front left (drivers side) one, I had to squeeze it a bit to get it on. It helps to take off those splash shields too.

 

ill be taking the mounts off to do it so i could use a vice with something to press them in, do u have to cut the rubber out tho? the little slits in the inserts dont seem to be too wide for the rubber thats in the mount..

 

I put these in when I swapped a jdm d15b into my civic. It shouldnt be too hard at all with the motor in the car. You dont have to cut any rubber away from the mount... they press in real easy by hand. You'll have to take the mounts off but it's no prob. Nice upgrade too.

 

You don't have to remove any rubber from the stock mounts-but u might want to put some "window weld" or some other type of adhesive on 'em before pressing 'em in(especially the drivers side torque mt.)to keep them from squirming out-those zip ties like to slip.If you can get some of the adhesive used to glue windshields in,that stuff is the SHIZNIT!That's what I ended up using.

 

awsome, thats what i will do, i also heard of people getting long bolts with washers and replacing the ties with those as they dont slip. i might do this as well

 

I'm doing both the transmission mount and upper front mount this saturday using Prothane mounts. I probably won't do the rear mount since it really will be a pain in the ***.

 

If you haven't purchased the inserts yet theres another route to go. Remove the torque mounts completely and fill them with window weld. It's essentially the same thing but you don't have to worry about them popping out. Supposedly it takes a while for it to fully cure though...

 

tried this on my old ae92 and it didnt work for **** so i purchased the inserts already. i cant wait to try to tackel the rear mount :?

 

the rear mount isnt that hard to do, just make sure to remove the black canister thats next to it. with that off, theres a little more room to work with. just loosen the 3 bolts and wiggle the mount out, pop the inserts in.
