    All but the rear. A different engine bracket is required. If you were to provide me with the b20 rear bracket and a few pictures to address possible clearance issues, I could make a different one for you guys.

    After I complete and test a set of A20 mounts, we can work something out.

    They are stronger by design and have no possible way of tearing and releasing the motor. The torque rod and wind stop are there to ease the stress on the front and rear mounts and will (somewhat) hold the motor when they tear.

    Re: motor mount question.

    the best one to fill is the dog bone..i did that was easy. like bobafett said...its messy as hell, i ruined my pants and shirt im like wtf lol....napa has it its like 20 bucks a tube..thats all you need thou. so the front and dog bone is all you need filled the side dont do shit but hold the motor in place. Just by doing the dog bone itself...i was like wow...i do 4 grand launches and steardy as hell. I want to do the front one next..Someone should make a how to. BUt like chris said making a hole sounds like a great ideal...kinda like filling a donut LMAO......Well i was looking at jason budd setup he had the stock dog one pretty sure it was filled...no way a stock dog bone talking almost 900hp with slicks holding up LOL to that type of abuse

    Re: motor mount question.

    incredible, Im using the A20 pieces on the B20 so once you have some of those I am interested. Hell I would use both dogbone and that for shits and giggles. The mounts (isolators) are the same, the motor support brackets are what is different.(b20)

    Re: motor mount question.

    It's the rear bracket that's the oddball, right? My understanding is that the A20 mounts and front bracket are the same for the most part.

    Re: motor mount question.

    I just discovered the A20 dogbone works after all. Have it filled with window weld too, inside with the original rubber.

    Sounds like fun!
    Those integra gears are crazy short, lsd might not be a bad idea.

    Re: motor mount question.

    i run solid mounts for the front, rear and dogbone mount. Makes the dash shake at idle but other than that I like them alot more than broken mounts like i kept having. I used window weld and it worked for a little while but they started breaking too

    Re: motor mount question.

    broke the bottom trans mount for the crossmember, front motor mount, rear motor mount, and the timing belt side mount. The bottom trans mount, when that broke it took a chunk of the tranny case with it because it had a bolt through it for the mount, the front motor mount actually broke off about halfway down between the top and bottom, so under hard acceleration, the engine would actually lift off the mount. The rear tranny mount actually pulled the bolts right out of bosses around where the diff is. I had to helicoil them and go with bigger bolts this time. The timing belt side mount i just have window welded together, because the metal insert and half off the rubber actually fell out when i pulled the mount apart last time. The dogbone, the big end (motor side) rubber bushing inside of the mount was torn to bits haha

    The "poly-fill" method you speak of, is for lazy, bolt-on-JDM-fags that think this is a viable improvement on their car. It's like fixing a hole in your exhaust with duct-tape and super glue.

    The Soshi-Badge: Thought it was a cool color scheme. Dont wish I had an original JDM 3gee (what would I fill my time with?) Just to clear the air.

    you keep these kinds of posts up you'll be booted out of here eventually, the "lazy, bolt-on-JDM-fags" you speak of have built some very serious cars on here, where's your turbo setup? there are no aftermarket mounts for these cars, the people you run down have come up with an idea that works very well. big mouth for 25 posts. do some reading and searching and shut your pie hole for a while. The people on here are very serious enthusiasts about these cars.

    Re: motor mount question.

    and for your information, JDM parts are very rare and hard to come by for these cars, it's not like a civic where you can just buy anything
