Default I need verification about something

I've been talking to a guy with a really nice '91 Si with a B16A swap. He told me the car has a vibration problem at all speeds, and claims all EF's with swaps have this problem... Is this true or should I stay away?

He's running HAsport mounts and "88-91" Integra axles. I've been searching the archives and people have commented about this, but would like some fresh opinions on the matter. TIA

My friend has a 91 si too with a b18c5 swapped into his car using haasport motor mounts tooo, and his car shakes a whole lot all the time... Im not sure if this goes for all swaps, or maybe its just the mounts... But my opinion is that its just the mounts... hope that helps !!!

With solid mounts you have got to expect it, I would drive if first to make sure its "mount vibrations" and not something else.

Same with mine. I think mine would shake less if I didn't have such an idle problem. I'm glad someone finally confirmed that my car is not messed up.

Ya, right when I did my 2nd b series swap my tps was off a lil, causing the idle to fluctuate, it shook like crazy untill I caliberated it.
My mounts only shake when its cold outside.

Thanks everybody, now I know I'm not trying to buy a defective vehicle, at least in that respect.

Is there any way to counter this problem?

WHen I had Place Racing Mounts it vibrated a lot, now that I have the new EFB Hasport kit, it rarely vibrates.
