[mocchi]

brake pads arrived

so what did you do to your ek?

[TbM]

Did a few things yesterday and today.

Heres how it looked when i started.


Then i installed hasport mounts, removed the torque mounts and refitted the stock components.




Heres how it looks now

[AndreaCivic]

removed the torque mounts

are they the two front mounts?

I installed innovative recently but left those front two in there.. A bit of redundancy I suppose..

GW! Hasport mounts look great! What compound urethane did you go for?

[TbM]

Yeh the torque mounts are the ones at the front of the engine, it would help to leave them on there but i had OEM ones filled with polyurethane that were too solid and transfering vibrations to the cabin so i removed mine

Thanks they look alot better than the old ones i recon I got the 62A rated ones, Vibration is less than i thought it would be which is good. I went from mounts filled with sikaflex 255 ES to these and they seem to be softer surprisingly.

Cusco Brake Stopper

[TbM]

Nice one are they any good? havent use a brake stopper before.

[mugen_ctr]

DO the brake stopper eliminate the annoying vibration when braking over a uneven surface? such as over a pot hole or bad surfaces? always wonder how to cure that......

[Fr3aKi3]

No idea on on both accounts as I am yet to test them out, seems to be a worth while mod from what i've read

[Riced_Civic]

brake stopper will stop the fire wall from flexing when on heavy braking.

it will aid in brake pedal feel

[mugen_ctr]

Finally changed out the 13 year old rear speakers, i must say, the overall sound system is much much better now, was running just 6 inch splits at fronts, now 6 by 9 and splits

though it was a bitch getting to the rear speakers, a good 1.5 - 2 hour job >_<
