motor mount question d to b swap
hey guys i've been doing some searching for the past 15 minutes and having a hard time finding an answer i'm sure half of you guys know right off the top of your head.
currently have a completely stock 94 civic vx. she needs new motor mounts, and i really want to go with the full set from hasport in anodized red. link to set http://hasport.com/store/index.php/dcstk.html this is the 3 bolt trans mount kit.
mainly what i'm wondering is what is the compatibility of these mounts with a b swap? it seems like they sell the same motor mounts for the stock d series and the b series swaps. i've read other places that the left and right upper mounts are the same but the rear trans mount needs a bracket? this bracket correct? http://hasport.com/store/index.php/egrb.html same motor mounts though?
i know it also may depend on what b motor/trans you do as well. plans are probably a b18b and a hydro gsr trans. are there certain models that will work? do i need to look for a trans that has a 3 bolt mount as oppose to the 2 bolt upper mount?
thanks for the help guys! just don't want to buy 400$ in motor mounts to only have to sell them and buy another 400$ in mounts when i decided to do a b swap. don't get my wrong i love my little vx gas mileage, but i feel like the way i drive, i'd use the same gas mileage with a b as this d and twice the power. i'm also used to my truck that gets 12-15mpg max. so anywhere in the 20's and 30's is hella good mileage to me! haha

All i know is that i have a civic and i swap a b series on there myself... i used all integra mounts... only one civic the lower driver sider... by the the windshield reservoir
well if you used integra mounts on the civic, sounds like they both use the same mounts. and i'm going to guess that the 2 bolt upper trans mounts that hasport offers are for auto trans. so auto trans=2 bolt and standard=3 bolt. just my guess but it makes pretty good sense to me.
b and d series mounts are the same for 92-95 civic
its the mounting brackets that are differenet
2 bolt and 3 bolt refer to the drivers side block bracket by the timing cover
