does anyone know where I can find a good DIY for the ESMM's. I found one on club RSX, but the pics are just showin up as the red x's. Thanks in advance for the help.

The main problem I had installing my Innovative's was the long *** stud on the passenger motor mount, I wound up taking off the bumper and headlight and putting a gearwrench through the hole. Otherthan that it was pretty straight forward with using a jack to line up the holes once the mounts and bolted back to the car. Let me know if you need any more help.

 

This is a mod that I'd never, ever, do again on a daily driven car. Once driving its fine, but sitting at a light with the A/C on the vibration is almost unbearable.

 

I have to disagree. I have ESMM on the front mount and Innovatie mounts for the other 3. Vibrations aren't bad at all. I kinda wish it vibrated more...

 

On my RSX, idle with A/C on hit a resonance that just shook the crap out of the interior.

On the EP3 though, remember that the motor features a balancer shaft (integrated with the oil pump). The RSX does not have this.

Really, there is no reason why motor mounts are needed unless you do a lot of hard launching or run a race header and don't want the header hitting the swaybar.

 

I plan on putting these on my car and this is really helpful. I was kind of confused on where to start and this helps a lot. I am hoping it will help with wheel hop and make a nice shifting diff. I don't mind it being on a daily. Thanks!

What k20a3?

But yeah, I have a RH too. Maybe without the rear ESMM it's not as brutal.

 

agreed... esmm's have shaken my fillings out

 

But they are necessary for the Race Header to be installed aren't they? I've heard it'll crack without them.

 

yea you need them with the race header, but it gives me a headache just to drive haha
