Default Ebay torque mount question

when i bought my gsr it had ebay aftermarket torque mounts on it already. they were falling apart, so i went the cheap route and bought some more ebay mounts.

heres my question i'm hoping someone can help me out with. The center hole where the stud goes into the mount, is that suppose to be a very loose fit? the stud on the engine is much smaller than the hole and i feel that the engine still moves around a lot. I took a picture so you can see what i'm talking about.



idk if it is suppose to be like that, or if there is a sleeve i am missing that fills the gap, or if i need to get oem mounts to make it right. I just dont want to spend the money on oem mounts and find out they have the same size hole as what i got

If you would just get a FSM you wouldn't have had to post this question.

I think its normally tighter, but its been a while since I used OEM mounts I use AVID torque mounts. Why not go to a junk yard and pull some if you want to save money, or just buy oem, or fill your worn ones with window weld.

the worn out ones were cheap ebay mounts also, they fit the same way

and finding any integra in the junk yard with any engine in it around here is impossible. most of the time all the mounts are gone


i am fine with buying oem, as long as the hole for the engine mount is smaller. idk if they are like that by design or if just the cheap ones are designed wrong

It shows you how every bit, nut and bolt in your car go together. WTF does an ID number matter?

if i knew what the inside diameter (thats what we mean when we talk about sizes and say ID) of that sleeve was for the oem mount then i would know if the slop in the engine mount is right.

right now there is about 3/4" of slop in it, i'm pretty sure thats not right.

My oem ones fit that loose. I thought the same thing when I replaced them.
