Energy Suspension Black 02-06 RSX / 02-05 Civic Si Engine Mount Inserts Reviews

As a temporary fix for torn motor mounts, these inserts are a great cheap replacement if you're tight on money. Highly recommend to anyone looking for harder mounts.

Engine sounds and puts down power better. Vibrations at idle were pretty rough at first, felt like the car was on the brink of stalling, but after about 100 miles they're very tolerable and almost not noticable. Solid purchase

I have to say I hated myself for installing these at first. If you can get past the vibrations it's well worth it. The car shifts much crisper, improved cornering, and actually mad the car sound much more aggressive. Worth every penny, also pretty easy to install/remove.

Great buy. A whole lot cheaper than buying new mounts. Has some vibrations but its something I can leave with.

I have a turbocharged RSX and wanted to stiffen up my mounts. These worked and actually got rid of my engine vibrations. My gauges on my steering column used to vibrate but now don't. Great buy!

This is seriously the best bang for buck upgrade. I installed these on my 02 auto, which only has a velocity stacked SRI, yet the difference over stock is very noticeable. The power gets put down so immediately and efficiently, and the engine sounds so much meaner inside the RSX. Vibrations aren't for everyone, but they're honestly not as bad as some people say. It's like sitting on a washing machine hah.

I'm giving this item five stars because it is a quality piece, but it's coming back out. My 02 RSX Type S is my daily driver and I've loved it for over twelve years, but these mount inserts have brought it down. There are vibrations I never knew my car had. I've just come home from a six hundred mile trip and the vibrations at idle are terrible. I'd recommend these in a heart beat for a track car, but for everyday use they're a no no, at least for me. I want my smooth little zoomer back and I'll have it as soon as I can get the inserts back out. P.S. I have to apologize to some of the previous reviewers. I thought you were over exaggerating when you described the vibrations, but you were spot on.

Definitely a good mod for your car. Front mount was totally ripped and ESMMs fixed it right up. Engine def sounds better and shifting/acceleration is smoother. Vibes were bad for first few weeks, Ive had them in for about 1.5 months and they've relaxed alot, hardly noticable. Install was easy took about 3hrs total.

Installed these when I installed the front LCA energy suspension bushings. Install is easy. Only bought these because both my front and rear mount were busted. Wheel hop is decreased however not gone. Vibrations are rough, even though I'm used to it. Energy Suspension makes good stuff.

I ordered these because all of the reviews said they were worth the money. They definitely are. It reduced most, if not all, of my wheel spin. My suspension is tighter and hugs the road and doesn't fight curves. And the engine is definitely more audible from inside/ outside the car. Great product, highly recommend.

I've been turning wrenches for 38yrs. on stock to very hot rods. An incredibly simple solution to Honda's positively junk mounts. This is my daily driver & tho engine, trans & susp. are a dream, many components are cheap, like these, door locks etc. & is why I usually pick Toyotas for drivers. Definitely lots of buzz @ idle in gear especially with a/c on but driveability/shifting is greatly improved. Huge Value! Only driven briskly at times on the street.

installation wasnt hard but i had a few snags. Vibrations are horrible in my opinion, but their soo worth it! NO wheel hop at all. Period. for the price its an awesome mod

The install was easy and it really stiffens up your stock mounts. Also perfect for anyone installing a race header. Here is a video of my dyno run where you can see the motor sit perfectly still because of the mounts.

Install was a bit of a bear, but nothing extremely difficult. Response was immediate, no wheel hop. Vibrations aren't bad for me, only at idle and worse when the A/C is on. For the price I am very satisfied and would recommend this to anyone.

The ESMMi's are great for performance! However I did not enjoy them for daily driving. The engine felt secure running through all the gears, and planted on takeoffs. It makes throttle response feel immediate. I would recommend them to anyone who wants to opimize their performance ride. BEWARE: The vibrations drove me to take them out. I'll put it this way; If it were not for the vibrations, I would attempt to give this product 10 stars for their mod to $$$ value.

definitely a great quality product for the price you pay. the mounts dramatically reduce wheel hop and will give you peace of mind when purchasing a race header (won't have to worry about cracking)....engine is a bit more audible in car and vibration is noticeable, but nothing to complain about, I actually enjoy it

If your worried about vibration, don't...It is not that bad and it gets better after an Autocross or two...Both of my engine mounts are torn and now that I have the inserts the engine rocks around a lot less during slaloms and my car is much more settled. Fast transitions are fun again.

As always energy bushings are wonderful. Good luck getting the front mount in though. The rear goes in without a hitch and the vibration is well worth the added response.

If you are thinking about buying these then just go ahead and do it. The vibrations are not that bad at all as long as you have full interior. I got the black bushings just so it could be a little more subtle when i go to the stealorship for warranty work.
