I just installed a Hasport (durometer 62a) rear motor mount to my R and I was VERY impressed with the significant improvement to the wheel hop and how little NVH it has added to my car. Install was a joke, took no effort to put in as long as you lubed up the big end that goes into the rear engine subframe with some silicone grease and used a soft hammer or block to tap the mount in. When I started up my engine I was surprised to hear a visceral "rumble" in the car and you'd think that I had installed an aftermarket exhaust on my car! It definitely adds some NVH to the car but on the R it seems to vibrate most when starting out in 1st gear in the sub 2K rpms. At cruising speeds you can feel some engine harmonics through the steering wheel but nothing that would drive me crazy. I was lucky enough to get it off a local member on CivicX so I saved big time on the purchase price - Kudos to him for helping me out.
For those that are wondering about the RMM upgrade definitely consider doing it using street rated bushings as it will add the least amount of NVH to your car.
