Default HASport kits. ****s and giggles

Okay I'm about to purchase some HASport mounts. The billet aluminum mounts. Why? Cause they are so pretty.


Anyone have experience with the drag mount for the rear? I know it'll vibrate, but my car is a vibrator on wheels already.


Your thoughts on the mounts?

Are they pretty close to OEM fit?

I used the place racing mount for my friend auto/manual conversion, and truthfully. I'm not too impressed with the quality.


Anyways. I see lots of people looking through the forum.
I'm just tryin' to get some conversations going in this **** hole.

I agree they look nice and meaty.I almost got some,but Hasport talked me out of it because I simply didn't NEED them.I thought this was the best customer relations I have ever seen,DON'T buy our product,you don't need it,I love the honesty,not to mention they put work in for the tuner scene as far as research and development goes.

Default What's up?

Vibrator on wheels, ha ha, that was pretty good.

I don't see the point of the pretty? I'd agree with stiffening the rear mount. If you think about, it's honestly the one that really supports the engine when it flexes. My ES bushing inserts do a pretty good job though. I think re-enforcing/strengthening the rear mount and the front two stabilizer mounts are worth the effort. Have fun changing that rear mount, by the way. Seeya.

What's so hard about changing a mount?I can drop my engine (supported on a tire) with everything still connected and change every mount on it in about ten minutes.

I always hate doing that stupid rear mount. Such a pain in the ass.

I guess you just have a better luck with the rear mount than I do 92b16vx.

Btw Andy. I have an Energey Susepensions rear mount insert, and a Prothane rear mount insert.
I've got to say the Prothane stuff is Significantly stiffer.

These ES bushings seem pretty weak.
