EF8 Engine Mounts.. stiffer/fresher solution?

[AUSVTEC]

You could try and get your hands on a set of these:
Mugen engine mount set. Part No. 50800-XE9-SONO
Mugen use these mounts in there N1 race cars, civic's and crx's

Working well on my car, stiffer than oem but not stiff enoguh to rattle your car appart and not to expensive about $320 landed in Aus..

I have all the part numbers for the mugen suspension and bush range and also engine products for the EF8 crx, pm me if ya want em.

Just while everyone is subscribed, which mounts receive the most torque transfer from acceleration/decceleration? Those are the only mounts I'll fill with urethane.

At the moment even if I slowly decrease the pressure I put on the accelerator, it gets to a certain point and the whole car jerks back (or forth) and then if I reapply acceleration (even if I never took my foot off and gently press slowly) it jerks again. So if my guess that the engine mounts are to blame is wrong, someone please say so now haha (I know for a fact that the front mount is buggered, but just not if the above symptoms are linked).

Bunnings?

[Dxs]

Anyone know where to get some polyurethane.. around 65a hardness.. knox area?

bunnings? purple pig?

[Dxs]

bunnings had f all.. which was to be expected

purple pig had 90 hardness... but i am aiming for 65 hardness (i dont know why), 90 seems real hard though..

seems polytek has some products.. not that cheap though..

anyone want to tell me their experiences and what they used?

[Dylanamus]

DXS I can tell you from my experience that 90A is basically what you would call a solid plastic. 80a is like a rollerblade wheel - again practically solid.

I would be more inclined go to even softer than 65A, but it would probably be the upper end of what would be practical.

[Steer^Gimic]

bleh if your going hardcore and filling them, go the whole hog and fill them up with 90a.

dan you went to Bunnings in Scoresby didnt ya?

[Dxs]

i went to one in vermont cause it is on the way back from uni..

they dont have the 2 part mix i was after.. didnt bother looking at the corking gun style..

i am going to go for 75 hardness.. i have felt 90 and it is damn solid.. 75 should be nice
when @ purple pig some customer told me to check out solid solutions in east bentleigh. they have a site, so i will go there later in the week and get some 75 polytek stuff and see how i go
