How good are the Place Racing Motor mounts?
I have them in my crx. The swap was done almost three years ago. I don't know if they changed them since then. To get the B16a to fit, the front motor mount had to be cut off to clear the exhaust manifold. Not a bad set, but if I was going to do it again, I'd get the hasport mounts.
they might of changed
you have to remove the front mount bracket with the hasport kit too,
i didnt have any problems with mine, the only reason i bought them over the hasport kit is because i got them new for 150 shipped.

I've got them too!! No problems here, i love them!! I've heard so many people talk bad about place, but i think it's mainly hearsay, and not all of them have had first hand experience!! Place's first mounts were recalled becuz the polyurethane kept slipping out, but now they have no problems at all, i have their 3rd gen mounts, i think right now if you were to buy the mounts it would be their 5th gen style. They've only improved the mounts since their first ones. But everyonce in awhile their might be a few bad ones, but they all have lifetime warranties so you can always get a new set, also if you have any of the older gens and want the newer ones, all you do is just send your old ones in and you'll get the new ones for free and all you pay is the shipping for yours to get to them!!
Even hasport has had some bad ones out there i've seen pics of the hasport tranny mounts cracking from ls/vtecs, and their trannies hit the ground, but it might have been just a few bad batches out there, and i'm sure hasport replaced them for free. So it's all up to the person doing the swap personally i like the new hasport billet mounts, but i would want either the place new 5th gen rear mount or the hasport rear drag mount cuz they use 3 bolts instead of 2.

they are exactly the same as the hasport ones.. I have 2 efs, running a place racing in one and hasport in the other.. same engine positioning and everything!!!
