i wouldnt say i drive hard all the time, the little vtec here and there to get out of traffic, but my car has about 60k on the clock so its prob older then the rest of yours,
did the install by myself (piss easy) and bought them from jdm yard for $670, so all up it was good :)

when i bought the car it was already leaking so it was a matter of time b4 it broke, second set was from a jdm dc5r but when i got them the hydrolic one wasnt in the best condition, the rubber looked abit dry and crackly but wasnt leaking, that lasted me 3 months with occansional spirited driving

Hey all, as most of you have read, i broke my engine mount (driver side liquid filled piece of crap) and as trivett (were most car parts come from) parts told me that the dc5r mounts were different i went out and bought some hasport mounts.
apon buying them from JDM yard, yonas also advised me that they are the same as a dc5r ( for future reference) so i got home and opened the box to an awsome glow of polished alloy mounts. once installed (took about 2 hours for all 3) the car was better then stock to drive, it was a much tighter feel between shifts, less pedal used to accelerate and just a nicer drive all round
although the downside being at idol the vibration is more than the stock mounts but you can live with it
in short, buy some :)

yeah i did the intall myself but i got innovative, did u get 62 or 70?? it does idol with alot of vib but the feel is awesome, does ur car rattle abit more inside now like my headunit is abit rattly cause its a detachable face one?

yep sub frame came off and then mount installed, when doing the passanger mount, you should take the battery plate off(pain in the ass itself, but much easier for getting the mount off
