    Hasport engine mounts

    Hi all,

    It has been around 3 months since I have install my Hasport engine mounts on my DC5R, and there is a major noticeable improvement all-round. However, a few things I have noticed is that a few components in my car are now vibrating, for example my dash board and rear mirror view (mainly). This occurs only whilst driving. I know this vibration is normal, but my friend told me that over time the excessive vibration will cause the internal bolts/nuts etc to become loose. Is this correct??! Should I be worried?

    Also, I read on a forums that these vibrations will eventually stop. Is this true?

    Thanks in advance.

    If you have the 60a grade bushing inserts for your hasport, they will wear down and the vibration will be a lot less over time.

    As for the rattling and unusual loose interior sounds, they stay. Unless you attempt to fix them.

    To minimize the buzzing and loose trim sound. Make sure your interior is fully secured down with all the screws, bolts and clips.

    Put some loctite on them screws and bolts.

    with hard sussy & mounts, I've found the dash plastic mounting points have cracked over time.

    you can't have the best of both worlds.

    Not looking forward to this! ><

    I don't put anything in my glove box anymore because i cannot stand the rattle.. Haha.
    If you really do get sick of it, there are softer alternatives to Hasport.. Such as ESP.
    It's not 4x4 status, think of it as "Winter Mode".

    Would a torque damper be beneficial?

    I've had one, mild benefit, vibrates the car/fulfils it's purpose a bit, but imo, more blingy.

    engine damper would be better for reducing the load on the stock mounts, but all these cheapy ebay jobs are just filled with diff oil and dodgy seals

    Gas only i'd say - bump up the gas pressure to try and force the engine into not moving
