97 Hatch: Motor Jump
I did a swap no more then 3weeks ago. I put a GS-R into my EK. Eversince that motor has been in my engine bay it jumps it broke my hood and my dirver side(upper left)mount. I welded the hood bk it's holdin'. A week and half ago i bought a stock Si mount from the dealer and it broke a couple of days ago. I don't beat on the car. The only time the car gets beat on is when my cuzin gets in it. So i went to Honda again yesterday to get another driver side mount. The guy remembered me he said i shouldn't buy the mount i should have the car expected by Honda it's only $94.00 and they'll tell me all the problems i need to fix but before i do that i wanted to get advice from you guys. Any info that can help me stop the motor from jumpin' or genenral would help me thanks
the day after i did the swap i took the car to the mechanics and i had them tightin. the middle motor mount. I converted the Ek from auto to manuel so i picked up the tranny/bracket mount to hold the tranny. Everything looks tight. Yea that's what i've been thinking how the hell is it breakin jut by driving it. I cuz told me to get the ac/bracket/mount he says it's like a torque mount it attaches to the chasey. would this help?

#1 and 10 are the mounts. you can see where 11 and 12 go through 8 and 9 that mount to the frame rails.
Yeah I was the one that did the swap. The stock 97 braket lines up to the frame but not the motor. And the 96 bracket lines up to the motor but not the frame. We need to know what bracket to use in order to get it in there.



maybe you have another loose motor mount and its causing the engine to shake
