well i think most people will understand what im loking for but just in case...
i would like to get rid of the fluid filled motor mount(driver side) and cant seem to find anyone that sells one. i dont need a set unless thats the only way i can.
has anyone found a decent way to accomplish this?

 

What is a fluid filled mount?

 

what year is your prelude

 

i think maybe hasport or innovative makes a kit.

 

sorry i forgot i dont have a sig pic. its a 93 SI with a h22 swap.

 

fluid? i swore it was rubber..

 

Thats what I thought too!

OP if your talking about rubber mounts, I have a brand new set for you than.

You can replace all your old and crusty ones at half the cost of what Honda would charge you.

 

is this process similar to replacing blinker fluid?

 

neither of the above companies show anything about what i am looking for online. so if anyone knows how to help pm me
or if anyone can get ahold of the oaks to see what they did that would be great

 

go get some ES inserts

 

Looks like they quit making them. Anyway, the 4th gen driver side mount is not solid rubber, it's filled with oil. It's very good at dampening vibration, but not particularly stiff. They also make a mess when the bust open

 

yeah, when i worked at honda i'd cut the warrenty ones open and shoot the oil everywhere, it was awesome

if you get an aftermarket set they'll all work, so long as they're for a 4th gen with an F/H engine

 

energy suspension inserts are retarded. i had a set and they didnt fit. im not gonna mess with that **** again.
invader- good to see someone else actually knows about some of the finer points of their own car.
still trying to find a rubber driver side. i can live with the other ones baing rubber cause ill just fill them with polyurethane and itll be just as good. all i need is a driver side and ill be fine

 

What do you even need those mounts for. The OEM ones are more than sufficent. How much vibration could you possibly be suffering from.

Ive read about these mounts, I dont ever recall coming across a set of them for honda.

 

the OEM honda drivers side mount is a hydraulic(fluid filled) mount. He is trying to find a solid replacement for it.

 

Oh well than that would make sense. He can try ESP.com

I just picked up a set of those mounts myself.

 

you could drill a small hole in the fluid mount and fill it with a solid drying vulcanizing rubber/silicone sealant materal, let it dry for a whole dry and then its basically a solid rubber mount.

this is just an idea, ive never tried it so its just food for thought...

 

i was looking through the catalogue last night and it doesn't look like any of the 4th gens had a normal drivers side mount

just get the innovatives and you'll be good to go

 

Hadn't thought about that. It would have to be cleaned out really well before though. It's filled with oil so the filler wouldn't be able to bond if any was still in there
