Ef's have a front mount which should eliminate the need for torque damper mounts. Besides how many torque damper mounts in the EG's have you seen all torn up and not doing anything anyway...just get a polyurethance mount insert for your EF and that will be all you ever need

yeah,you don't really notice it except at idle or hard shifts...but it gets old fast,especially in this damn state sitting in traffic.

I eventually switched them out using a stock 90 integra passenger mount,place racing rear and driver side and innovative front mount,,,it felt like driving a stock integra finally..

the front mount on a EF is a joke. stiffening the front mount is the same effect of an engine torque damper.

here's my cheap solution.
front engine mount mod - CHEAP

took care of my wheel hop. better shifting. i hear its better for the synchros too.

These aren't from a honda,but I did these for someone a while back..The exact **** inside here is polyuerathane ,but you get the point..And it really does help alot for dirt cheap.
