Default Motor mounts for swap

Alright, I'm getting my plan straightened out super early before I do my swap in summer (long ways away I know, but I like to know exactly what I'm doing asap). Doing a B18b1 for those who don't know.

I'm looking in to the motor mounts and considering just going aftermarket. Now there's kits like this: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/96-00...item20ae5d9525

Would that be sufficient? I know I need the driver/cam side mount off an si, but that gives me the mount I need right? I plan on tucking my bay when I pull stuff so I want my bay to look clean, so motor mounts would make it look a lot better. Those are generic motor mounts though, so the trustworthyness is what scares me.

Should I just dish out almost $400 for Hasports? They have a real nice look to them, and they have the mounts I need for the the swap.

Also what's the other mount I need to do the swap. Isn't it the rear tranny t bracket or somethin?

Ive heard the ebay ones arent awful but Id go innovative mounts. I wouldnt want my motor to drop out when driving.

I lookedmore into the eBay mounts and most people say they suck. They don't line up, don't sit flush, and are just junk. Not test fitted just welded together. So I think I might eventually get a set of Innovative, not too pricey and still look real nice. What's the other mount I need? Is it just the rear T?
