Alrighty, just trying to gather everything I need before I put my motor back in. Anyway, I got to looking at my motor mounts and was a little worried.

Now, I'm by no means a motor mount expert, but these look home made. They're for a gsr head.








Basically my question is, how important are motors mounts, and should I dish out the motor for new ones? I haven't driven this car enough to know how it felt, but I haven't cheaped out on anything in this build and I don't want to start now..

Any opinions? I've had my eyes on these, but if someone knows of anything cheaper, speak up :p

Those could just be really crappy eBay or some sort of low quality mount.

Hasport mount are great! There is also innovative. Usually they are a little cheaper, but 300 for Hasport is a pretty good price.

 

Are those inserts?

 

homemade, ebay.. same thing haha.. and idk grumble.. i mean, i could prob get em out..

is it worth upgrading?

 

I would. OR, you could go stock/Type R.

 

i called acura bout a quote on stock mounts, was over $400 for only 2, i think ill pass on that lol..

so if i were to order from has. or inno. what would i be looking for exactly, as far as stiffness goes.. i dont want my entire car shaking like crazy, and from what ive read hasport mounts are pretty stiff

 

they look like inserts put in stock mounts and they're not fitting right at all. they look hacked up. i have the ebay mounts and they use the red energy suspension inserts. ive never had a problem with mine for 2 yrs they were a great improvement over stock without breaking the piggy bank. only complaint i have with them is they're cheap paint chipping from them. they're all shiny new and painted by myself now im sure it will hold much better and looks better then they did when i got them. how stiff they are is the type of insert they have. u want something for street not track use. 60A should be fine. mine barely vibrates anymore then stock and the motor isnt moving an inch or 2 when im shifting.

 

i swore id never buy important car parts from ebay, but do you have more info on yours?

 

The lowest, which I think is 62a.

You will feel thm, but they wont be jarring your teeth out of your head. Are you running torque mounts? They may help out a little.
