Well, I'd only be doing this until my 6mt swap got done. I'm going to be ordering the 6mt mounts (preemptive) but wanted to put on the front and passenger side in the mean time...

Also, has anyone tightened their ingalls ETD yet? I was toying with the idea of doing it...

 

mine is as tight as it goes, and has been for a while...

 

I'm talking about the 27mm pre-load adjustment. I remember it saying something like it came out the box at 14mm (from top of nut to ETD body - 15mm is the max you can go without damaging it) and it's basically a soft setting and anything under that (down to the minimum of 10mm) stiffens the "stiffy".

yes it is fully seated



btw who had the stiffy first...

 

damn, hardcore. I guess I'll give it a try...

 

62a mounts have been ordered....

 

I thought for sure by now there would have been another detailed review as promised to see how these mounts have been holding up or if there had been any noticeable issues.

 

X2

 

No news is good news??????

 

^ Better news would be getting a tracking number

 

but yeah civic's would be the best news

 

has anyone heard definitively if we are still expecting these the first week in April????

 

What happened with tester reviews ? Is there any issues ?

 

^ Im wondering the same. Its been too quiet.

 

Hey Guys, I'm still here. Been real busy lately, lots of OT.

Anyways no problems with the mounts at all. They are great, I'm confident those who purchased will be very happy. I have put close to 2500 miles on them and no problems. The temp has gotten warmer up here and it feels like the car is gaining more grip with the increase in tire/road temps. Highway full throttle shifts into 4th gear feels like the car just leaps forward, Its pretty cool.
I did have to chase some rattles, these things are stiffer than stock remember. But once I found the problems a simple tightening of the bolts fixed it. So I found my dash bezel, arm rest, glove box, intake, and trunk springs all loose. But that's all taken care of, so now I'm just looking to the future and trying to figure out what I want to do next. I think I might buy an extra set of tranny mounts so Josh @ XLR8 can get some fabbed up possibly. Then I will test those.

If you guys have any questions please feel free to ask, or pm. Whatever. I'm heading up to XLR8 next week probably to pick up some stuff, will check on the eta for the mounts.

 

4th gear CHIRPping FTW (i have gotten mine to do it with stock mounts, but the more aggresive clutch helps me on that though)

 

Good to hear and I hope we are still on track for early April.

 

Ufff thats a relief. Thanks for info and i hope they eill be here soon.

 

I spoke with them on the phone last week and they told me beginning of April also. I'm going to order some more parts from them so they can ship it out with the engine mounts. I would interested in trans mounts also if they decided to make them.

 

I wasn't going to be able to get my entire shipment for a few weeks so I had them put a rush on about 20 units, which should cover all the pre-orders we had. They are at the powder coater now. They should be shipping to me next week so I should received them anywhere between late next week and the week after.

 

Once you will get them how long it will take to be shipped to us ? I remember that you said you will have to label it n stuff before it will be ready. I just cant wait.

 

That depends on your location in the US. You will have to use a UPS map to know how long. We are in CT.

 

Im in central new jersey so i think it wont take to long

 

Nice. I hope I'm in the batch!

 

i was hoping to have them this week. im going easy at the track and losing money!

 

damn. i need some asap

 

Just ordered the 62a mounts

 

Have there been more than 20 pre-orders already? I need these mounts asap! All of my mounts are shot

 

ill take another set (for a friend) just need to know when these will ship out

 

i wanna get these, are they hard to install?

 

Not hard. Just time consuming. The rear will be the hardest one bc u don't have a lot of space to work with. But with some t

 

got ya, my car kind of jerks when i let go of the gas suddenly in 1st and 2nd gear..do you think these would help that somewhat or is it just the tranny?

 

Thats your bad mounts not holding the engine in place.

 

 

WOW, mine does the same, but i have new mounts on front

 

back probably then

 

Do you guys think there might be a fitment problem with aftermarket headers? I know that the DC headers require removal of the rear mount to install, but I don't know how the XLR8 rear mount will squeeze in.

 

what , you can normal pull the upper section of the header out the top of the engine bay, and not even touch the rear mount (and i have pulled the lower section/j-pipe off multiple times with out ever touching the rear mount by myself too

??

 

grinding a little bit of that bracket (which does NOT get replaced with excellerate's mounts as far as know), should make the headers fit without an issue



btw the mount should not have to be removed (or bracket), especially if you got a dremal tool, with like a "sanding drum", once the stock manifold is pulled, plug up the exhaust ports with some paper towels (just to keep every thing out possibly); sand/grind a little bit away of the bracket, to clear the new header, and you should be good
