You replaced your Hasport 62a mounts? Why? With what? I didn't choose the 62a, but the most extreme race polyurethane available, don't remember the number. I didn't want to ever have to change them again. But now, for a bit of relaxing quiet on the street, I am considering it.

I personally choose the Hasport 62A.

It does get smoother after 5k miles.

Its now totally acceptable even during our hard canadian winter.

Back to oem, I don't track my car and wanted to reduce noise a bit, I could barely hear the cai at night with the windows down lol. I'm not sure swapping down stiffness would quiet it down so much, just from speculation it seems better to just keep all the benefits of maximum stiffness

No rattle for me yet thankfully. However I've been having a loud clunking over the choppy pack ice in parking lots ect for the past few 1000 km, thought it may have just been the cold. But its definitely a suspension issue in the rear end. 2019 SI with just over 15000km took it to the dealership and they said they had another one come in with a similar issue already.
Figured i would mention it for other Canadian SI owners.

To follow up: I found the rattly buzzing at 2K RPM! It was the rod that props up the hood. It didn't happen when the hood was up because the rod was then locked in place. I had to hold the hood up with one hand and feel around while a friend held the revs at 2K and told me when the buzzing was gone. Great relief!

I do a few track days a year and I am having trouble finding brake pads that are good enough to make it the whole "weekend". What pads do you use? Thanks

Up till now I have used street pads. Hawk HPS. They last well enough. I recently installed the 27Won front brake kit, which comes with some unbranded street pads that have held up fine to a couple of track days. I plan to try some track-only pads this upcoming season.

BTW, I have some sets of Hawk HPS front pads that I can't use anymore which I would like to sell.

I am using the hawk 5.0 and they are better than stock pads, but still over heat.
