Anyone have poly motor mounts installed? I know everyone's tolerance is different, but just how bad is the vibration with them? Was the NVH increase worth the performance for a daily driver for you? I would mostly be DD'ing it, with occasional canyon road driving, and hoping to get into AutoX (when it gets cooler). I've also been browsing AcuraZine for some answers, but like I guessed, everyone's opinion is different.

Was considering these: http://store.excelerateperformance....xlr8_engine_mounts/xlr8mm9903tl/i-411798.aspx

Here is an article outlining what the differences are, what they are used for, etc.CLICKY HERE

Here is a video of the difference it makes under the hood​

Here is a video of a different type of car with performance motor mounts, interior NVH video​

I'm sure others will chime in with them installed on their CGs, but I've personally had some on other types of cars, and I would compare the ride to that of driving with coilovers. :beer:

I have Innovative Mounts 65A. They take some getting used to in the beginning, but after awhile, when they are broken in, the vibration isn't that bad.

Keep in mind with our cars being as old as they are, you may hear more rattles than in a newer car.

I have Innovative 65A mounts, hated them at first but after they broke in I didn’t mind them. There’s faint vibration at idle, and it’s more pronounced when the A/C is on. It’s easy to live with daily, but I’m glad I didn’t go higher. I do not auto-x though.

Ended up picking up some 75A XLR8 mounts. I really hope I made the right choice. Kind of hard to tell just how bad the vibration will be over a video though. I've been in my buddies EK Civic hatch with solid mounts before, it surprisingly wasn't that bad, but he also didn't have AC.
