Boomba Racing Rear Motor Mount Installed

[maddmatt02]

Engine mount vibration is crazy.
friend has it on his RSX with Hasport mounts.
The whole fucking car shakes on the standstill.
I got used to it from being in the car once in a while but nope cant do it for DD

All mounts though? What hardness? I'm hoping just the one won't make it that bad.

Installed it on ramps today. Couldn't fit a torque wrench in, so just used a combination wrench and applied all the force I could to tighten it. Getting vibrations, but hoping it'll die down a little after a few thousand km.

It was like 4 5 years ago I don't recall especially it wasn't even my car.. but it vibrates so damn much

1 out of 10 on your vibrations? Curious if yours is better than others.

This is very subjective though I have a Canadian 2016 coupe touring.

Let's go with:
1 - just like stock
10 - car gonna fall apart

Reversing out of my driveway is quite bad, like an 8 - almost sounds/feels like when a MT is about to stall.
Driving at speed - 1
Slowing down (10-15km/h) to stop - 6
Idling in drive - 3

Maybe it's placebo, but I find the car is more solid when driving, like the front end is more planted to the ground. I also find that I hear the engine more (dunno if this is a good or bad thing), reminds me of sitting in my friend's STi.

@fightermav, yours isn't installed yet?

Screw it then I can wait out the 1000 miles. It'll go down eventually.

I'm installing the motor mount and the rear sway bar at the same time so I should absolutely notice a difference in driving.

Nah I had to wait until I take it to Honda tomorrow to do a bunch of work fix the grinding

Wanted to keep it stock before I brought it for warranty stuff so pushed the appt back a week.

Did Honda come out with a solution for that yet? I need to get that fixed too

Oh it's a very common problem with turbo engine owners. I'd say 50%.
