Oem mounts with etd is an ideal balance of nvh and stiffness, with side benefit of preserving mounts.

Mind sharing where you got the mounts for 261? I'm looking on majestic honda and seeing that each is worth about 180.

Motor mounts are cheaper in Japan than they are in the US, even after shipping, and mine arrived in five days from Japan. I personally used this guy: https://www.instagram.com/jack_bros.ebay_motors/
