It is possible you have either the wrong t backet, or mount kit.....

the EM1 Si rear t bracket is what you need, plus i believe you need an Si driver side engine mount post also.

Double check and make sure your Hasport mounts are for the EK chassis

yes i got the 3 mounts from hasport and the bracket from HONDA


no clue what else it could be, ended up cutting and adding an extra inch to the bracket. and it works. motor sits straight, in a good position. thats why im tripping about it not lining up to the rear mount it was about an inch off.



anyone need a 99-00 si t bracket i got like 2, long story short i had 2 thought they were prolly the wrong ones bought one from honda they charging me a restock fee so yea!!

Does the car still have a EK subframe?


What Deetz meant is, are you sure Hasport didn't make a mistake and said you the inccorect mounts?

Aren't all rear mounts the same? For 92-00 civic and 94-01 integra. I got my Hasport mounts last month and the rear one had EGxx engraved on it

im pretty sure they are the correct mounts.

would it be a possibility that they changed the crossmember?
(think thats what its called) where the rear mounts bolts onto.

IMO the rubber mounts are the same, however the T brackets are very much different.

Sure is, I've seen it before.

There are only so many reasons why this would happen, and that is one.

Do you have a front sway bar? What do the endlinks look like?

the EGRR rear mount works in all 92-00 civics and 94-01 integras

sounds like someone switched out the subframe in which case you can just use a 94-01 integra 5spd rear "T" bracket

Yes. Even 'in-the-know' Honda/Acura parts guys and wrecking yards mix up rear brackets between Civics and Integras sometimes. If buying a used one, it's always best to know EXACTLY what car the part was removed from. I pick up Integra brackets whenever I happen across them at wrecking yards, and like to pull them myself so I know what I've got.

sounds like a teg bracket is what you are looking for, they are like an inch longer than the em1 bracket. you must not have an ek crossmember.
