it's not too small... if you tighten it, it will close up :D you can add washers if it will make you feel better

Hmm I thought JDM crx's had different mounting points then USDM crx's thus the reason hasport makes mounts to use these motors in USDM cars because of the different mounting points. But im not 100 % sure

if its a rhd car that came with a sohc, you might need a mount kit. if its a rhd that came with a b16, then you need the jdm mounts. probably easy to find at an importer, as no ED can use those mounts. DA mounts might be similar. And i think mugen still makes mounts for the sir.

yep. a rhd sir ef, will have mounting brackets in different spots vs. a usdm ed. hasport mounts are made for the ed engine bay. try the 90-93 usdm integra LS mount. it might work.

btw, since it's a b18c, make sure you have the 90-93 integra block bracket (same as a 90-91 jdm 1st gen b16a one) and not the b18c1 one.

plus if it is a true rhd sir, then the hasport tranny mount will not work.
