Default b swap

i have an 89 crx dx and i am goin to swap a first gen b16 into it. just wanted everyones opinion about motor mounts. ive been lookin at hasport and inovative, both look nice and seem reliable but which one will last longer and provide the least vibration. i have a relatively stock d series in my rex now with the window weld mounts and it shakes like hell haha, and it doesnt help with a lightend flywheel and stage 1 clutch that chatters away. also ive seen that you can just use 90-93 integra axles that will just bolt right in besides removing the dust seal and the ring on the axle, is that true? anyone with b series please feel free to help me out cus im pretty new to doin this haha. thanks

from what i gather hasport, innovative, avid, and even ebay make pretty decent mounts. I'm using ebay mounts and they seem fairly well built. not as strong as hasport structurally speaking, but i don't think they're going to break anytime soon either. As far as how much vibration you feel in the car. You'll have to go with hasport or a more expensive brand motor mount set if you want to be able to choose the type of bushings in the mounts. They have i believe 3 different types. from stock/soft, to solid/race bushings.

avid mounts came with my swap, no complaints here. you really can't go wrong as long as they are a reputable company and the welds look good
