Default Engine torque damper

I was searching for engine torque damper and seems like there are only two for s2k
1.J's racing
2.5zigen

But I heard J's racing damper has problem with clearance with AC hose and very hard to install it right.
and I have nothing found about 5zigen damper.
Anyone has any info about any other damper?? link??
Thank you

I never heard anything about the 5zigen. Here's a thread about the J's.

The 5Zigen damper he is referring to is the one made by Pro Racer (which I believe is a branch off of 5Zigen)

I belive this is the one:

I didn't have any problems either but it seems like honda has some different clearances for the A/C lines.

Mine's installed using a new bracket that I built myself to compensate for the blower bracket. I'm not using a STB. I have modified several J's brackets to fit LHD cars without bending the AC lines at all. I just finished building a bracket for the J's damper on a Comptech STB.
