Or you could just buy the book. It will be the best investment you make.

So this is universal for 96-00 Civics regardless of motor?
Or is it motor specific?

The part number is the same for 96-00 civics and 99-00 si's. So it's universal for 6th gens.

Hey OC did you have to jack the car up and remove the driver side wheel to install the longer 10mm bolt to the shock tower plate?

I just purchase a Ingalls ETD going to install tomorrow am. Also I can't get the adjustment of the ETD it's self do you know how to adjust it? I must have read the instructions like twenty times. Still no luck.

Like how do you adjust it? lol

I just looked at your final product and measure the threads you had remaining and I moved mine to about three remaining threads. I read from factory it's 14mm I just moved it one thread over so it should be 15mm now. I hope I sound some what right. lol

im running avid torque mounts but may think about doing this mod in the future

edit: yes any kind of stiffer mount or damper will cause vibration

i had to take my engine damper off cause even on the softest setting, it was way too loud from all the shaking and rumbling. car drove great, but it wasnt fun to drive such a loud car and it felt like a really old mustang lol.

That is not cool, I know different cars react to dampeners differently.

Still a great mode if you can handle the shaking and noise.

So after reading the post... 10 pages of it... It sounds like ES Motor Mount inserts and Ingalls ETD is a excellent set-up. I am looknig at doing inserts first and then the Stiffy damper later on.

Those running the ESMM are you using all 3 mounts in the kit?
Does any one have the ETD with Prothane inserts?

I don't think I have seen it confirmed or not, but does the Ingalls mount fit with a B18# swap?
