Who has changed their Rear Motor Mount/Pitch Stopper?

I have a few questions for members on this thread that all posted "I'll come back with feedback after break-in". Why hasn't anyone legitimately posted their experience after 100 miles, 500 miles, 1000 miles or the magical 2o00 miles break-in period that most people seem to spout in all these post. My best guess as to why they never came back to update their review is they probably sold it dude to not adapting to the NVH or their legs are already numb to NVH aka use to it that there is no change in their initial experience.

Here is my unbiased 35 mile review of the 62a Hasport rear mount that was driven in a 45 min drive for 35 miles straight in consistent 65-80mph speeds on the highway. This is installed on a CTR that is used as a daily driver and from my point of view as a Daily driver intended use.

Pro:
- Greatly reduce wheel hoping on launches at red light
- hard pulls onto on-ramps 1-2-3-4 gear you feel ever so slightly more planted but not 100% TCS proof

Middle Road:
- This mount along amplified what use to be a stock sounding exhaust to a very basey exhaust note in the cabinet. This is either a positive or a negative depending on if the driver wants a more race car like experience emitting off the resonance of the vibration on the chassis.

Con:
- Very deep amplified exhaust note between 1-1.3k RPM in 1st gear getting off the line
- Ball sac vibrates on the seat between 1-1.3k RPM in 1st gear getting off the line (women love this)
- Floor pan vibrates between 1-1.3k RPM in 1st gear getting off the line
-"Without" the break-in period, prepare for a leg tingling experience if you ever drove through lengthy drives at highway speeds. At first I though I was fine with the 1st gear get go vibration which is to be expected between 1-1.3k RPM the car very deeply vibrations as you get off the line normally. And then the "Vibration" subsides down as you go up the RPM as a normal driving pace. When you actually hammer the gas pedal in any gear, the Vibration comes back like if you are watching a LeMann's race car POV video on youtube. But for me at a consistent highway speed on 6th gear between 2 to 3.5k rpm what might not sound like audible vibration, was a very tiny "vibration" being emitted through the floor pan and the gas pedal. At first I didn't noticed till after 20 mins into the highway drive that my legs started to fatigue with some pins and needle feeling. At 35 mins of the drive mind you no stop and go traffic but at a constant 65-80 mph range, my shin and my foot area started to tingle more and felt a little numbing. Right when I got home at 45 mins, got out of the car and felt like I was standing on a sub-woofer blasting the entire time. Although the NVH was "silent" at highway speeds, there is truly still vibration being emitting through the chassis to my legs and obviously a tad in the seats but there is enough cushion between my butt on the seat to feel fatigued. I'm not quite sure this piece will be any better over time after the theoretical break-in which is where I am relying on owners that installed this mount 6 months ago that posted their initial impressions here to repost an update of their experience used on a daily driven CTR and not a Track only/weekend only type car use.

Now for those that reviewed their initial impressions, were you basing it on audible vibration or took a step back and check with your legs and feet as to what they tell you. Had I driven the car at a few stop and go lights and traveled less than 25 mins, I probably would of gave a more positive review. However I would like to shine the lime light for owners that plan to Daily drive this like I am currently doing and how you would need to coup with this. For me I will not be continuing the use of this item as I am not looking for world record launches at the drag strip. I'm not quite sure I would be able to use the rear engine mount to it's fullest if I do 70% daily and 30% track and 0% drag racing. It's not worth potential damaging my nerves from the vibration emitting off this mount for daily use. It is currently 2 hours after my drive and my legs finally stop vibrating and tingling. If my CTR was strictly a weekend toy and a track car, then I would probably reconsider it as I don't have to deal with numb legs each time I complete a 1 way 1 hour commute to work and 1 hour back from work to home usage.

I still stand by what I wrote earlier whether it’s 10 miles or 10,000 miles. I’ll just leave it at that. I don’t get why people say it settles. Harder mounts never settle, IMHO. Think about it, to exaggerate, you went from soft to hard. It’s not going to go back to soft. If it does, there’s no point in upgrading for a few pulls or certain miles. Like I posted, I’ve had hard mounts before. When people say settle, they just get used to it like I did and do. Vibration and all that stuff is still there. It’s not like one day u start the car and tell yourself, ok, it’s settled. However, I do believe overtime the urethane or whatever plastic does break down, but it’s barely noticeable. I’m sure the current stuff is even more durable.
In my other car, I even thought about drilling holes in my mounts since they’re so hard and I’ve had them for more than 5 years.

So is there any point in upgrading the rear motor mount if you are never going to track the car and in my situation only drive 3000 miles a year?

My idle is set to 1100 and the mount is not noticeable in my SI. Been that way for 8k miles and I dont plan on changing. It is unbearable from below 1k on initial throttle blip and I can see it causing bad dash rattles long term....if you dont bump the idle up that is. I would suggest to all those tuned to try it and see what you think....

The car is stock feeling still and there are other benefits to a slightly higher idle of 380 rpm compared to factory.

The mount hasnt changed since initial install in almost 10k miles. I dont believe in a break in at this point.

While I haven't touched my Type R yet, my old 07 turbo sentra had a solid chromoly steel motor mount. It was solid on both sides. My tuner raised my idle from ~700 to 1000 and it felt stock both on takeoff and highway. I can agree with this. I don't know what benefits there are for raising the stock idle other than that, but I never noticed any bad effects, except for a louder than normal idle on cold startup.

Keep in mind when it comes to NVH, I'm the biggest carebear in the world, so even feeling SOME would be a hard no for me.
