Those were OEM, i've upgaded to Mugen. Very similar to OEM and it still has an oil filled mount.

Yeah I wanted OEM but clearly they're not working out for my driving style..

Can you buy just a single Mugen mount?

What's everyone oil pressure at warm idle? Mines been around 24, and even as low as 19psi idling at warm temp.. Seems abit low...

I get about 1.5bar which is about 20-22psi. Oil about 93c

Oil: Honda FEO Ultra 5w30.


When I was running royal purple 10w-40 I was getting about 1.8-1.9 bar/26-28psi at 93c.

What oil are you running UNA91?

[Poeter]

I don't have a gauge but sometimes when i botch a launch the oil light briefly flashes. Eg when I let clutch out too fast and revs drop to around 400.

Oil light flashing means it must be running very low pressure which can damage your engine. Probably way below 0.5bar before it start flashing.

Either your oil level were low or your oil pump is starting to show its age.

Using Valvoline Synpower 10w40 I think or maybe it was 5w40...

I'm just not sure why my oil pressure suddenly drops from what used to be average 28psi to around 21 psi idle now... i've been using the same oil ever since I got the car. Oil levels are fine, and I don't think there's any leaks. At 3k rpm it's around 65-70psi

The only think i can think of is that, I recently installed a water temp gauge, and i've tapped into the oil pressure gauge to power it... maybe it's robbing some power off it? But then, i've seen people with multiple gauges all connected parallel tho. :/

possibly oil level, i dont see why it would be low but. dont vtec that often, in fact only driven once or twice a week at most,

no oil leaks and meticulously serviced. been 3000kms since my last and thinking of going for another one.
