what are you looking for in them?

minimal engine movement, or comfort?


EDIT: *Most* people use Innovative here. If you're looking for minimal engine movement, move up on the stiffness scale (60A is softest, followed by 75A, then 85A)

EDIT2: If you're looking for comfort (not as many vibrations), stay down in the stiffness scale

i'm thinking about picking up a set of 60a's I was wondering how long they should last? The guy said they have about 30k on them and has only auto-x them once and there is no damage or tears.

Also, would they completely get rid of all wheel hop, with the short mod list in my sig?

Edit: oh I was thinking about running the Esmm along with the mounts, good idea or not?

ES are inserts that fit into the gaps of the stock motor mount rubber bushings. So you need to do one or the other, ESMM inserts, or aftermarket motor mounts with solid polyurethane or rubber bushings (i.e. innovative, hasport, avid, enjo, etc.)

In the Kit yes (rear, passenger, tranny)

For our car... we have 4 mounts..

so to complete the kit you'll have to get the front mount seperately.

what i mean is that esmm is a cheap way to reduce engine movement & wheel hop but it will never replace engine mounts basically you get what you pay for... some cheap ass plastic inserts or some solid mounts

i also tink that 60a is plenty, if you get all 4 mounts they should be able to hold a lot of power so if your planning going turbo and pushing some serious whp and track the car often then i would go 75a

i mean do it right but dont overkill it

Is 30k miles considered a lot on 60a mounts?

if you get them for a good price than yes, innovative carry a life time warranty... you can send them back to innovative and have them replace the silicon. so you pretty much have brand new mounts

$160 sound about right? And I wonder if that warranty is transferable?
