Anyone have one of these? How does it perform? More virbration??

 

And is it worth buying?

 

so it dampens one side of the motor..and not the other.. sweet sideways action..

jdm drift.

 

Had one for a while paid about 180 bux for it Didn't notice a benifit. I ended up selling it.
Wasn't worth it to me. Remember this is my opinion and I am sure there will be someone that loves it and swears by it. But just my POV it wasn't worth the 180 bux.

Also for the K20 there are some that mound in the center across the plug cover

 

Motor mount inserts would be a better option...cheaper too.

 

My mechanic has had one on his mildy built b20/vtec for two months and he hasn't broken the driver side civic mount. He put it in and took out the poly mounts because of the vibration.

 

Looks cool... too expensive to buy for debatable results though. Some more reviews from users here would be killer

 

i think spoon eg has one. he hasn't sold it yet, so i guess it's doing it's job. seems more like a bling factor IMO.

 

Here's my take on it.

More Vibration YES. Dampens one side seemingly YES but it is quiet effective whoely. I have used this not with Mount Inserts.

 

stevel has one

 

I have heard it works well but why don't they make another side?

what would they bolt it to on the other side?

 

I have one but dont notice any extra vibation with it...MiraiZ which one is that you have pictured...its the same one i have, i searched numerous sites to find which one it was and came up with a k-One damper because its the same colour but maybe its some other brand...J's???

 

I sell J's products and don't even recommend it.

...just get the ES bushings?

 

Its incredible how clear-headed everyone is in here. There was a guy asking about it in the civic forum and I was saying all the same stuff and was getting flamed like roasted corn at a county fair because everyone was so blinded by the JDM smoke screen of BS.

 

i just broke one! LOL!

 

After how long and was it during racing?

 

yah I gave up on it...I have enuff weight under my hood

I installed two of the ES bushings last weekend, I love 'em! They kind of give the car a 'muscle car rumble' at low rpm's As for increased traction, or lessened wheel hop- I don't really know the best way to evaluate those.

ok.. thats reason enough for me not to get into such product..

 

That means it's doing something though for it to be damaged like that.
