I have searched for the better part of the previous weekend before posting. Im getting ready to put my gsr-t (out of my 01 integra) in my 2000 civic coupe. currently it sits at 320 ish and is my daily driver. From what i have read/heard, the rear mount sends the most vibration to the cabin. Is this true? 2nd question. Is it a common practice to have a mixture of motor mounts? Here is my scenario and final question. I was thinking of keeping the rear oem mount ( from my integra) and using innovative mounts (62a street bushings) for the side mounts to stiffen the bay up but to also keep the cabin vibrations to a minimum....Does this sound like a good idea? Any help, or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

 

the rear mount is the same on the civic and the integra.

 

ok 96 00 civics require different mounts than a 92 95...

92 95 civics and 94 01 teg mounts interchange...96 00 is a different story. 62a is the softest available poly mounts you will find and yes the rear mount does transfer the most vibration.

99 00 si d/s post mount (use if you are going with a oem style mount)
if you are going to buy aftermarket mount kit then decide whether or not you need the 2 post or 3 bolt set up for d/s

make note that on a 96 00 the motormounts all bolt to the frame unlike the 92 95 civics and integras that the mounts bolt to the engine/trans..

you will need a bracket that bolts on top of the trans case. d series or b series will work but must be for 96 00.

rear T bracket must be a 99 00 si THE ONLY WAY TO USE THE 94 01 teg REAR T bracket is to change the subframes..you would need to put the integra subframe and rack and pinion in order to use a teg T bracket, therefore make it easy and buy the right 99 00 si t bracket.

basically what this boils down to....buy a mount kit for a 96 00...

 

Thanks for the responses.

Sleepyaccord96, What i was thinking about doing was using an oem rear mount (whichever is the correct one, because i want minimal vibe in the cabin. Im rational and am aware that with using stiffer mounts in other places, i will gain some vibrations, but with my motor setup, i feel it would benefit alot if i stiffened it up slightly.). I would not be opposed to use innovative's mounts for the rest as long as it wont shake my teeth out, since its a d.d. I was planning on using the 99-00 si t-bracket.

 

What necessitates, or determines the need between 2 bolt and 3 bolt set ups?

 

I just switched to hasport mounts and i left my rear mount in and only used my side mounts. The car does vibrate slightly more but just enough to be a noticeable gain in vibration. The only noise that came from the vibration was my glove box rattling but that was an easy fix.

 

'94 - '95 Civic EX/Si/VX and '94 - '01 Integra (all models) used a 3 post mount. Everything else used a 2 bolt setup.

Dont quote me!

 

Ok, so i am about to order driver side and passenger side mounts. Do i still have to run the front vibe mounts with these new side mounts?

 

No, but if you're trying to stiffen it up why would you want to remove a mount?

 

So I have been emailing back and forth (with very quick response times, which was nice) today with a rep from innovative mounts. He recommended not using an oem rear mount. He also advised i use a 75a track bushing instead of a 62a street bushing for my setup. I am wondering if he is telling me to use a different rear mount as an attempt to up sale me (which is what i think) and also i am concerned that the 75a bushing will rattle like crazy and annoy me (this is my dd, not a track car. Maybe occassional friday night drags at the strip). The reason why i am somewhat skeptical is because when i asked him to elaborate more as to why he made his recommendations, he stopped responding. Does anyone else have any input? I am looking to order mounts tomorrow or the next day.

 

if you're worried about vibration, keep it oem. use all 5 mounts. simple as that.
