WOuld these do the job?
I paid $800 for the last set of OEM mounts for EF8 in Australia so consider yourself lucky!
And good luck changing that rear mount :D
What's wrong with your current ones?
Their worn so the engine moves about during hard changes or clutch droppingQuote:

Hardrace DC2 engine mount kit $365 pick up
Thought of saving some coin and installing yourself? If you are just changing the 3 (2 sides and 1 rear) it is pretty simple, it is just the rear one which is a bitch to get too because it is way under the Intake manifold. I had a set of Innovative Billet mounts (60A), wouldnt go any stiffer for street otherwise you will start noticing cracks in your dash and feel EVERY vibration your engine makes..

if someone can help me out with the install as i dont have the right tools id be willing to pay some coin, anyone in ctown or nearby
why not just take it to hannys man
i remember they changed out my engine mounts pretty quickly - i remember not paying a whole lot either (especially if you supply your own parts)
how much?Quote:

if you want prices then call the shops up and ask them... we can't tell you how much a shop that we dont work for will charge you for labour.
if you're on a budget, your best bet will be to look up some articles on how to replace them yourself and put your coin towards getting a good set. engine mounts aren't something you want to have to change often.
you also need to check which ones are torn/cracked. there are three main ones (transmission, timing cover, rear) and another two underneath the engine on either side which are usually reffered to as torque mounts, and their purpose is too stop the engine from tilting too much when going on and off the throttle. like when you are changing gears.
torque mounts are not hard to replace, and if you are good with a socket set and spanners then the main three aren't hard either, just time consuming.
I have innovative engine mounts and avid torque mounts, which perform really nicely but vibrate a lot. those hardrace ones from JDMyard look the goods, should be reasonably solid without causing too many vibrations.
Yeah I think its the torque mounts which are gone. Its only when launching a little hard-very hard or in between shifts I'm getting tonnes of engine movement. Otherwise idle and all that are really smooth.
People saying in forums hard race caud shit tonne vibration as well
if you're worried about vibrations then just go OEM. just have a look at all your mounts and see if any of them have broken/torn rubber. if it's the torque mounts just grab some oem ones and whack them in, they shouldn't be too expensive.
The stiffer the better plus the chicks love it when it vibrates!
Yeah man I don't really mind vibrations a while lot its just that reviews wildly vary between being shit tonne of vibrations and just a little above OEM. And something about break in.
So what you guys reckon, hard race is the way to go or get used has port oems
I meant used has ports*
btw guys i just decided that i will get oem mounts and just sikaflex them to make diy poly mounts
prob cost around $280 in total including install so pretty decent price i reckon
