Default Hasport mounts, changing the rubber inserts

With winter and cold weather just around the corner in my area, I'm hoping I can find some one that can produce rubber inserts that will be of the OEM softness degree.
The reason for that: With cold weather, entire car vibrates like two skeletons doing it on a metal roof...What's worse is my timing, it gets retarted with the knock sensor and thus the car runs like crap before it warms up.

So, what fits those aluminum mounts? Can the rubber be replaced for some thing softer than the street setup inserts hasport offers?

Re you sure something not rubbing?with the hasports you have to clearance by the rear t bracket. sometimes this is not enough and it vibrates there, I cut more of the lip there off then rewelded the crossmember. If you want I have my old mounts they are some old skool mounts from before hasport was around, 2 are rubber (solid rubber driver and tranny mount) and it uses a stock 90-93 integra rear mount. If you want to try them just pay shipping, then cant be worth much now. On my car I didnt think they vibrated much at all, but I also run pretty much complete solid mounts now( hasports with the inside filled with epoxy) and dont think they vibrate to bad but its not my daily.

do you know what durometer urethane you have in your mounts?

you can send your mounts back and we can put fresh 62a urethane in for you.

i would also check for rubbing/resting like crx jimmy posted

Since excessive vibrations only happen in cold temperatures, I don't think there is any metal/frame contact. In the summer, it's nice and smooth. Which point of the T bracket am I to check??? Thanks for the offer of you mounts but with the change, I'll probably be running into relocating my header to cat connection, as right now, my header is not level, it's pointing up at about 30 deg off horizontal.

How do I go about checking which rubber do I have? Are there any identifying marks?

If I am reading your post right and your header isn't level that might be an indicator that there some sort of a problem right there.

The part number on the urethane is cast into it on the inside surface so you would have to remove the urethane and see what it says.

When I was originally installing the mounts for my B swap, I started with the 2 side mounts. To get the 3rd rear mount in, I had to raise the back of the motor considerably to fit the integra bracket. Should this T bracket be modifed some how??
Looking at the motor now, the top valve cover is not level. I'll ty to take a picture soon...

the rear lip on the crossmemeber should be bent down where the t bracket rests above, its real tight there and hasport doesnt want it to rub.
