Default Installed Place Racing Poly Mounts.... LOTS of PICS

Installation was fairly easy... I did a few things today. I also changed the factory battery to a Dyna-Batt battery which weighs 13 1/2 Lbs. Pics here... https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=245896 I changed my spark plugs as well from HKS one step colder to stock platinums... runs like a champ.

Back to the mounts... They obviously made a tad more vibration, which I can totally live with if it helps me get the power to the ground. I also have poly torque mounts as well.

Next week when I do my Toda clutch and flywheel, I will throw in the HaSport rear drag mount I have sitting in my room. That one should make the most difference I believe.

Black is a good color to hide the dirt.

For ME it's not so bad.... it DOES vibrate quite a bit though. Small price to pay

Thanks people

Miguel

That's a integra C&R you're using right? Were you able to use the factory radiator mounts on the bottom and relocate them or did you have you make your own bracket/support from a sheet of metal?

Fits in fine.... just need another radiator bracket on the top. Simple, easy install.

How does it support on the lower driver's side? Didn't you have to knock out one of the lower brackets that originally hold the left side of the radiator or the ac core lower bracket(s)?

Man, I'm almost scared to reply... you now have 666 posts...LOL

I am in NJ all the time. I go to E-Town pretty often. IM me... where in NJ are you from? I go to Howell pretty often as well, my wife's sister lives there. I also work in NJ everyday... just not with my car.

I'd love to meet up and see that beast. I have never seen it in person yet.

The bracket is just an additional Civic radiator bracket.
