I tried looking a while back, but I could not find any! I think your best bet is to buy new OEM mounts. I really don't know how much set goes for, But I would not trust a set old 15 year old mounts bought second hand. Unless you are getting them dirt cheap, then I would say go for it! Good luck!

Ditto. I dont see our car as being 'torquey' enough, or even 'powerful' enough to deserve performance mounts, and excluding the guys in this forum, people dont mod the stock motors to produce enough power for a manufacturer to bother making them.

you want a stiffer mount do a solid mount i did the on my vw gti the car willvibrate more but puts more tourgue into the ground rather the usieing it to move the engine anothe way is to use chains(old v8 trick) when v8 cars started to come out wiht rubber mounts inte late 70's people could "tune" the mounts buy rapeing then wiht differnt lentghs of chain good luck,

I used poly-u resin and cast my own mounts for my corolla. Its similar to what 90CRX posted. I got the stuff from http://www.mcmaster.com/. It was a few years ago so I'm not sure if this part number is still good, but the stuff I used was 8644K11. Its 80 shore resin, they had some harder stuff but working of the expierence of others I went with the 80. It was under $20 with shipping. The 3g mounts will pose some interesting challenges, espically the front one. The corolla mounts are like the civics, metal loops filled with rubber and a tube through the middle. Just shave out as much rubber as you can with a dremel and still have the tube centered then filler up with poly-u.
