Honestly the vibrations I get with my innovate mounts are a non issue. It really is not enough to bother me at all. If I wanted a fast car with an extremely comfortable ride I would have gotten a mercedes or something.

Make sure you keep heat away from them though...I know from experience

Yea there not for every application I don't use them I'm just saying there not pointless, if these people were worried about vibrations then we could also say coil overs are pointless too because they will beat your guts driving around, the only thing I'm on is called your mom

I've got a 70a innovative pass side motor mount for sale, brand new.

Will sell cheap, don't need it in the garage.

The vibration with the Hasport 70a's is less than with the FBM/Avid 70's. I'm able to quantify the difference; I can actually see out of the rear view mirrors with the Hasport 70's

1-2 hours if you do it in your own garage. A shop should be able to do it in less time with a lift and air tools.

spectacle, not that I necessarily disagree with your assertion that street cars should stick to stock mounts, but the engine most certainly moves laterally. As a quick example, pop the hood and watch your engine as your start/stop the car; then engine will shift (if you're running stock mounts).
Agreed. I never said the motor doesn't move. But in our application, that doesn't matter.

Figure out why they're breaking first, then proceed from there.

If you blew a motor, wouldn't you want to know why it blew first before you replaced it?
what reasons do you believe would cause a mount to break?

Abuse. Same reason stock diffs and trannies break. You can drive a high hp s2k on the street without breaking the drivetrain, but you can't abuse it like you would a built one.

Let's put it this way. There are people on this forum that have broken the stock diff with stock power and called it "weak". Relatively speaking to other options, yes it is...but they never fess up to what they were doing when the diff popped. They're doing 8k clutch drops on street tires and wondering why shits breaking! Anything will break with abuse...v160's, 8.8 diffs...when it comes to stuff like that, why be concerned about the motor moving a little bit? All that vibrations gotta go somewhere...

All I'm trying to do is steer people away from another useless mod. These mounts are becoming the new 3mm HG
This motor vibrates and breaks shit bad enough! I couldn't imagine a stiffer motor mount

Why are people hating on the mounts? It seems to me that with the oem ones breaking all the time, the aftermarket ones should work better. Not to mention with them being stiffer, they will provide better response and if nothing else, prevent the damage from the oem mounts failing.
