My friend, just a piece of advice...please only make one post for your topic as everyone WILL see that specific post and WILL reply to it, should you have provided enough information to go on. Also, you can always edit your post to add more information at anytime, instead of making FOUR different posts. That, I would think, would be a good way to get your thread locked.

With that said, have you done any research on motor mounts? I would suggest using the search feature and checking out other posts relating to your question. Also, Google will help you out a lot.

You never specified what year the Civic hatchback is, by the way.

I wish you the best and since you seem to be new here, welcome to HS.

I think he means eg. If that is the case, he will need a lot more than just mounts. hydraulic transaxle, obd1 ecu, mounts, shift linkage, axles. OBD1 distributor/injector clips.

I'll go out on a limb and assume you're talking about another EF since you posted this in the EF forum. The CRX and Civic hatch the same platform so nothing changes.

I don't think I'd want something that I'd have a hard time fitting.

One study at UCLA indicated that up to 93 percent of communication effectiveness is determined by nonverbal cues. Another study indicated that the impact of a performance was determined 7 percent by the words used, 38 percent by voice quality, and 55 percent by the nonverbal communication.

yeah I would recommend using Arizona Race mounts or Hasport cause others are just metal and will cause engine sag and engine vibration due to welds on the mounts. Billit is definately the way to go. Only buy once and don't have to worry about breaking mounts.
