the energy suspension torque mount inserts ($30 ish) are very easy to install. just drop the motor slightly by using an impact gun on the two side main mounts take out the tourqe mount and zip tie the new ones in. but if your wanting to do the main mounts (i.e the liquid mount and the trannie mount) the front mount (luquid filled round silver thing on the driver side) is really messy and also makes the car no fun to daily drive, the car vibrates alote. and the trannie is just like the torque mounts and im not shure how much those run

i have them. they're easy to install. they're pretty much self explanatory, but if you're mechanically challenged they come with instructions as well.

basically, just put the motor mount inserts in the correct mount and zip tie that biatch to stay in place and you're set.

The two front mounts are not bad. The rear motor mount was a *****! Plus my car sits there at idle and the steering wheel, moonroof, A-pillar, pedals, and hood vibrate like a ****.

The two fronts are not that bad to do. The rear mount is a bitch. Trust me, I just did all mine a month ago. Also, if you are going to this you need to put all three mounts in. If you don't you will get a little more vibration than you would wothout the rear mount and if your rear mount is not totally gone it will be with just the two front ones in. Another suggetion is to go buy small bolts washers and nuts instead of the zip ties. Zip ties eventually break and the inserts start squishing out. The vibration at idle is bearable but the feel of the car is great!!!!!

Well see the problem that im having is that like around 60, 70 ,or 80 my car starts shaking uncontrollably. My rear mount has been going bad so i figured thats the problem and was told that the inserts would solve the problem. Is this happening to anyone or has happened to anyone ?

all the inserts are pritty easy except for the liquid fill mount by the timing belt. I had to take it to a shop to have them press out the metal sleave and it took them almost an hour

i got the energy suspension ones, and the lower 2 tq mounts were not too bad to install, but the rear one was a pain in the ***, not to mention that my whole dash vibrates at idle. I think its worth it though since u can launch without having to think about ripping a mount.

I'm thinking of picking up the complete motor mounts from Jimfab.com he says that the three motor mounts that he offer now are more then enough to keep the motor still. I've heard good things from a couple of people about his mounts.

I have them in mine. I loved em when i first got them because my car started to have the same feel as a "race" car. Now its a little anoying but still great when accelerating hard. Plus my car feels really responsive.

Dude do yourself a favor and get the HA sport mounts. I have a crx b16a hybrid and I wanted the same thing... mounts cheaper than hasport mounts... and about 3 months after the swap my rear motor mount got completely screwed just from a hard shift into second. Now I have to pull my motor next week and replace my crappy mounts with the hasport ones. Believe me on this one... this is one thing in your motor you can't go cheap on. You should get the HASport ones.
