Motor Mount Group Buy
All Righty race fans,
I know that many of us are sick and tired of frequently busting our motors. As we know these POS were designed for the older 3.0 liter V6 Accord and carried over to the higher HP Accords, CLs and TLs.
Well, there is a solution and Excelerate has put together a group buy package for us of $250.00 for the front and rear set, IF we can get at least 10 people to commit.
At this price, I'M IN. $250 is about $40 more than the OEM ones, and a savings of about $50.00 buying them directly from the vendor.
Please idicate via the poll and your reply if you are in.
Background information:
In the recent motor mount post I learned that the following aftermarket mounts designed by Innovative Mounts will not only hold up to the power most of our cars are putting out. But most importantly, the stress of "spirited driving". These mounts will also reduce wheel hop, which will help your 0-60MPH, 0-60ft times at the track, which in turn will improve your overall 1/4 mile results. It'll all depend on what mods you have, but expect a 10th, possibly 2 10ths.
While there can be a slight increase in engine vibrations being carried through the chassis, steering wheel and pedals, it's should be slight and it's possible most won't even detect it. I've run solid steel motor mounts before, but with all the engine vibrations of a V8, it really didn't matter as the car shock regardless.
Here is a link to the thread with some comments from some of our pioneers (SIRSIG and Accord_V6_400m) in using these mounts. Note that I agree in recommending we use the "street" version. The exceptions would be the serious performance nuts out there and they may want one of the harder mounts.
