are you talking about the rear mount with ruber in it? if so it depends on what mounts you have. cause you need aftermarket ones. on my car i couldnt cause the aftermarket mounts were too thick cause they are cast aluminum and the stock mount is steel so its alot thinner. or if you are talking about the rear triangle mount that mounts to the motor itself you cant use your stock bolts there way too short.

As long as the bolt is long enough to catch thread on the other side of the mount and tighten and it's the same size shaft it will work. When I do engine swaps and stuff I just throw all the motor mount bolts in my pan 'o' bolts and grab random ones when throwing it back together it's all the same bolt just different lengths

Mattor of fact, just go to the local boneyard and take some trans-to-engine bolts out on some hondas (anything 88-2000 I know uses the same bolts d or b blocks) they will work for you!

can somebody please give me a thread count and size for the #23 bolts so i can pick them up at a local store. none of my old crx bolts will even catch thread and the largest bolt i could find at lowes looks like it might strip the thread if i tighten it ?!?!?

Here are some general recommendations that may help you figure it out yourself;

First off, with the bracket out of the way, screw the bolt into the block in order to check that it's the correct size and pitch. Make sure that it screws in at least 3/4" and that "gunk" within the hole isn't preventing it screwing in freely.

Then with the bracket in place, insert the bolt to the point that it's just ready to start. There should be at least 3/4" of the shaft exposed. This is how much it will screw in.

Without a washer in place, thread the bolt in and see if it tightens against the bracket. By doing this you know that when you add the washer it's going to tighten against the bracket and not just bottom out in the block.

If you have a bolt that goes through a nut-plate (as in the bolt that goes through the rubber mount) or just added nut, once installed the bolt should go through the nut and at least two threads of the bolt should be visable.

i just wanted to complete this thread and hopfully any body in my position that searches and finds it will be saved a headache. the proper sized bolt for the rear T bracket for a 96 and up gsr would be 14/1.5 thread and about 2.5"- 3" long. i spoke to a hasport imployee and he told me somthing that i found very interesting. honda uses primarily 2 sizes of thread, thats the 1.5 and 1.25 so if you have no luck with one try the other, i hope this helps somebody later own down the road
