    Well on my DC5 i had Js racing and I didnt have this clunk noise.

    I think something is installed wrong, or the ETD has put strain on ur mount causing it to stuff up.

    But i cant say till i see it in person.

    i just uninstalled the m and m honda engine damper and still left my front strut on and the noise rattling problem has dissappeared :| is there a certain way u have to setup the engine damper correctly ?? isnt it just the case of installing it in and tightening it up ??

    For my own curiosity, the EP3 runs Mcpherson/Double Wishbone like the DC5 correct?

    Stock mounts are terrible
    mate i think what u said is right because b4 when i was driving with the engine damper on i could hear weird noises when cornering

    haha i think it may have upset the engine mount. Guess there is no need for it now for ill probably just get some innovative mounts sometime in the really near future
