If I had a huge h22 I'd probably go Hasport but I don't.

In your case, that is understandable. I had window weld lower torque mounts (I believe you are looking at my DIY on this forum ), and Drop Engineering D/B series engine mounts when I was running my JRSC D16y8. The DE mounts weren't bad at all.

Trust me, it is a serious you-get-what-you-pay-for kind of thing (comparing hasport to innovative). However, you can't go wrong with filling up the mounts, or buying inserts for your set-up, too.

On an extremely conservative tune, the car made 168whp/141wtq.

Yeah that's probably more power to the wheels then my gsr has and if you didn't have problems with less then Hasport mounts I should be fine. Is that your crazy a$$ driving? Lol

Yes u can fill up ur old mounts but like wat he said u gotta wait for it to be fully dry... As for mounts I would recommend hasports too.. But innovative are nice too I like em cuz the street isn't as hard as the hasports streets.. But any of those choice will be fine.. I might have some extra inserts laying around somewhere I'll let u kno if I find them

and as plethoric33 say u can always get the weakest mount first.. and for civic thatll be the driver side mount.. since civics are liquid fill that mount alway move the motor when u shift or go over bumps

Well I'm not driving the car right now I think it'll be parked for winter so drying time isn't a problem. Lol

You can probably end up doing all of them to be honest. However, I only have experience with the lower torque mounts.
