KiNK43 Posted September 5, 2015 Author Share Posted September 5, 2015 Drove the car today for a good journey and no way can I live with it. Seriously ridiculous. Never expected them to be this bad. So tonight the side mounts have come off. And I've left the rear in place. Have to say. Nice happy medium. Still vibrates a fair bit. Mostly slowing down 2k rpm ish.But engine is much more stable than all OEM mounts. So yeah I'm happy. I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiNK43 Posted September 5, 2015 Author Share Posted September 5, 2015 Got me new window trims from Honda finally tho. Was really letting the car down flappy trim and a bit of temporary tape.BTW PayPal refunded me from that joker Ben Watton. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dr_broon Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 That's a result with the paypal refund dude. Were your old mounts tired? Do you think that new oem ones would tighten things up (not as much obviously) without the side effects? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chandler Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 thats good mate! what grade poly was your engine mounts?how much they cost you mate? also we need pictures Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiNK43 Posted September 5, 2015 Author Share Posted September 5, 2015 @drbroon Ermmm torque mounts and the rear mount were new when i put engine in. So not very old. From tegiwa though so probably crap.I'm happy with the compromise now anyway. I can live with some vibration just not so much that I can't even hear my 100db exhaust.@Chandler pics are further uo the page. Mounts were 125 quid. As for grade.. Don't know the specifics but there flipping hard. So I'm just using the rear mount on the subframe now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krzys Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 Haha I drove to Devon and back on Friday, the drive down was fine but coming back was horrible, was driving a little quicker but still steady and the drone from the exhaust because of the mounts drove me mad! Bring on the sound deadening! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
