i am planning on getting some motor mounts for the ef. i have decided to go with innovative mounts. i like the engine feel and wouldn't mind the car shaking but not to the point where i would need to retighten down bolts all over the car after a couple of months of driving. but i do enjoy the actual feel of the car shaking when gasing it.

what do you guys have and what response do you have about it?
would you also go harder or softer with what you got?

60A
75A
85A
or something else?

 

I'd get 60 if you don't want it to shake to bad.

Thicker bushings don't mean anything if they are still a harder compound.

 

i have the 60a bushings on my ef, there plenty stiff, enough so that my rear view is constantly vibrating. but for daily driver its prefect. imo i would go any higher unless it sees track time.

RATTLES???

AND UMMM PLACE RACING HAS BEEN OUT OF BUISNESS FOR SOMETIME NOW!

 

I went with the 75's because I have an H and whatever mounts you buy will probably eliminate the front mount all together.

 

I am running the 60A street mounts. They are plenty stiff. You will get some vibration and a good amount of added cabin noise, but it really isn't too bad IMO.

 

wow the consensus seems to be the 60A so far.

with the 60A there is plenty of rear view mirror shaking. i hate the mirrow shaking tho. but i wouldnt mind the 75A. with either one i guess the mirror will shake a bit. is there a solution to help with the mirror?

 

i got 75's....my rear view merrior likes to move by itself ... and you cant see if a cop is behind you on the highway ...lol

 

I have 75A and I have had them for awhile and I get a rattle here and there but nothing that bad. My mirror doesn't rattle, the only thing that rattles bad is someplace in the hatch area and it isn't even that bad, I probably just have to tighten something down. Nothing rattles when I'm moving it only rattles when I'm stopped but thats if idle isn't at 750rpms if it is then nothing rattles. I like mine where its at, I dont have to re tighten anything except for the hatch problem.

 

Just think of like this the 60 is going to way stiffer than any stock OEM mount and the stiffness goes up from there.

Sure, stock rubber mounts, or don't use a dynamically unbalanced inline 4 cylinder as your power plant.

i cant really compare to my stockers because they are soo out since i bought the car. so i never got a chance to see what its like at least decent.

 

60A it is

</TD></TR></TABLE>Pssh, start with 75A and then work up.

 

Hope someone comes out with a full rubber bushing for the b series in ef's.

I would sacrifice a little engine movement over the 60a urethane vibrations any day

 

75a is best for most street cars (if you plan on making anywhere near 200 whp, now or in the future). Vibration is minimal, depending on your tolerance of course...

 

what about honda uk/edm b16 crx mounts? would those fit usdm cars?

right now i have innovatives crossmember and its pretty harsh for me. it feels like the fronts wheels have no play or bushing. so when i hit bumps its hard. i dont think there are these poly bushings in there tho.

What does that tell me? Time to move from 75A to 85A and this is with a D16Z6!

 

for my type r motor i went with the 75A
