Innovative Mounts

[stevan]

torque dampers dont do much except look cool, if your going to be increasing power even slightly go with innovatives or hasports depending on your budget, as for vibrations my mates car with hasports is actually a tab quieter than mine which are billet innovatives (both 60A rubber)
i ripped my stock mounts at 50k with only a cai. havnt seen too much on the mugens but they are surposesly bout 40% more load capacity than stock and judging by their design they would be the most comfortable of the lot, except then you still look like you have stock mounts

forgot to mention, when i got mine installed i was like fk what have i done, the car was quite a bit louder inside and the car shook noticeably. after a while i loved the way it felt, livened the car up considerably and as Burak said makes it feel like a race car.

What is the reason you are getting mounts? If it is just to remove Wheel hop, ESMM inserts work fine, but vibrate a fair bit also.

My friend just installed his inno 60A today so ill see how much it differs from my ESMM inserts.

With the ESMM inserts, engine noise from 4000rpm-6000rpm is pretty annoying ><!

Zakarados was that question to me? If so, is because im planning on doing internals later down the track. I already got I/H/E and few things in line just waiting to get put in. So now in the process of looking for new engine mounts. What about J's?

you want comfort but you going to do all these mods to your car?

not only would mounts make the car more stable but you need it if you going to get a header

just get inno or hasport man

i got inno in mine, tough as nails no need to worry bout engine mounts again

[AsHw3e]

lol yeah i guess.. can't always get the best out of both worlds ey. Will look into inno & hasport and see how we go

thanks for that.

i reakon just go for a ride in a car that has mounts see if you going to like it man

[AsHw3e]

Yeah thats true. Will look out for that aswel

ive had my 60a mounts in for 2 years or so now, theyre pretty decent, definitely put the power to the ground alot better, but the vibrations can get annoying, main thing is looseish panels or resonant frequencies for certain panels, overall not too bad though, the rear view mirror is abit hard to see out of at certain frequencies too. But its an acceptable level of vibration, any stiffer and it would be hard to daily.

[Zakarados]

Can someone with experiance with both ESMM Vs innovative mounts compare the amount of rattle/noise?

At some RPM's the ESMM cause insanely annoying frequencies via rattles, esp when all windows are closed. This gets even worse when you go for drives when ur RPM is always at the high end.

Will get worse in winter when all the panels contract and start making noise For me my innovatives vibrations are not what bothers me, its just the cabin noise when the aircon is on. And i never drive with the windows up, drone gives me headaches

[plAythiNG]

aircon on, the solid moutns will vibrate quite well .. heheh

i just oprdered ESMM isnerts for my gf's dc5,however hers ia luxry/base model, and is also Auto.. so my experience will be diffrent compared to my Tpye s.

[Zakarados]

Yeah, the cabin noise is what is killing my life at the moment at high RPM, it seems the same thing happens with the innovative mounts, so i guess no upgrade is needed.

Sounds like a plan.
