Default HASport Mounts?

I know HASport mounts are the shiznit but I'm wondering if they are really worth it.
I need mounts for my engine and I wondering if I should drop the $400 on the HASport ones (which is like elevendy billion dollars cause I live in Canada and our dollar isn't worth shit).
It'll most likely run me around $350-400 CND for OEM mounts.

Opinions please!

The quality is outstanding, but the side-effects are not the best. The poly bushing and rigid mounts enhance engine vibrations and transfer them to the cabin. So much so, that you dash and other interior pieces will buzz or rattle. If you can live with that, go for it. Some people just don't like that kind of stuff. A friend of mine had the HASport mounts and took them out of his car after a week. He went back to new OEM mounts instead and is quite happy.

Bah. A little rattling or buzzing doesn't mean sh!t to me. EGs rattle all the time anyway.

I'll check out place racing too.

I did some searching on H-T about Place Racing and read a few bad things. Also there site is down for updates.

I think I'll spend the coin on the HASports ones. Plus they look all BLING being made out of billet.

I've heard a couple bad reports on Place, but nothing major.

For a 5G, there is no bother in using aftermarket mounts anyway.

place racing sucks my ass

I LOVE my HASport mounts...and the vibration in the cabin are not as bad as everyone plays them out to be..if your motor has a smooth idle then the vibration is neglagable.
