why not? stronger motor mounts are good investment, i blew my mounts 3 times since i got my car. If i can get stronger mounts that will last me a lifetime without changing it, (which btw adds up labor) i'll jump on it no matter how much...

thanks for the links, but basically i have a the DIY poly inserts already, it's not doing it's job on mine to tell you the truth

the problem on V6 engine mounts is the 2 "strut type" mounts on the left picture(front and back mounts) they blows almost everytime. I can get the parts real cheap but the ******* labor is a rig!

they started a groupbuy on V6P.net before but now i don't even know if it's gonna happen

i've put that on before (second time) and only difference is the brace that they put around the mount, purpose is just to hold the mount incase it breaks so it doesn't fall apart. which is a dumb idea because it's the same mounts...

well what is making it wear out so much, is your motor missing, or a clogged cat? maybe that was making it vibrate and wear.

to tell you honestly i don't know. even before with light mods (I/E/H) my first set blew. Not to brag or anything, i'm pushing 360hp/323tq right now, and even with reignforced polyfilled mounts still doesn't catch it too anymore.

like i said, on V6P they started a groupbuy and i saw how the product looks like, they're awesome, but they won't make it unless we get enough people interest, i highly doubt we are getting more people...

that's why i'm asking and seeking if i can get an alternative to it

UPDATE: 06/11/07

got the mounts and it's installed... as you all know, there is NO aftermarket mounts available for 98-02 V6 6th gen Accords. I am one of the few lucky guy who get a hold of it.

thanks everyone. i got them from a group buy @ V6P.net $400/pair to convince Innovative Mounts to make us 10 which is not bad considering the quality and materials they used, not counting the lenght of time they spent and r&d to build a brand new-never been done before mounts-from the ground up for 6th genners.


<U>NOTE:</U> this review is base on my car...

<U>DAY 2</U>
First of all, these mounts are not DIY. Experienced mechanics are not needed, but you need a very patient installer that has all the necessary tools to get this done. Mine took more than 2 hours, that's just because i have a lot of things on my engine that needs to go out.

I'm gonna be honest here. There is a very little vibration on my steering wheel @ idle and very mild @ WOT It's not to bad, considering they are solid bushings mounts. driveablility will not be compromise! It feels like a brand new OEM mounts without a wheelhop! I tried to WOT several times at the freeway and at the street, and my front end would not go up like it used to, handling on corners feels much faster and i can feel my engine doing it's best, well, i need to retune it tho, cause it hesitates sometime.


pros: lifetime warranty, tough, elimates/reduce wheelhop, hold engine very well, replaceable bushing inserts from street(red), street/track(black), race(gray)
cons: traction can get my OEM axle snap again


although it's early to say this, but for the price i paid i can say it's worth it, With much stronger mounts backing up with lifetime warranty, i have a peace of mind and confident that i would not think of replacing my mounts again...

Did you only replace the front and rear mounts? If so, why?

front and rear are the most susceptible on breaking. the side mount can easily be filled with polyurethane, and serves only as a brace. As you can see on my DIY mount pictures, the front and rear poly filled only goes on top of the mounts and will not going to help because the OEM mounts are made of shock/strut like.

my 6speed tranny mounts are also poly filled. combining the later makes an awesome traction.
