Does anyone manufacture polyurethane motor mounts for the L15A? The wheel hop in the Fit absolutely blows and and can feel my drivetrain screaming with pain every time I launch or slip on some leaves or snow. I know people do the whole window weld stuff but I was hoping someone had created replacements like energy suspension or if there are other bushings that might fit from other cars?

 

I feel it too. i havent seen anything yet but i hope someone finds something.

 

You mean motor mount inserts... Not the actual motor mounts. traction bars also help eliminate wheel hop. Not sure if anyone makes them though.

 

innovative makes mounts

 

Cool thanks, just found the site and the thread from 2007....

350 for mounts is a lot!!! Wow.

Here's the site if anyone else doesn't want to search for the thread and the product Innovative Mounts for Honda Fit

 

Yup, not cheap. I ordered a set of 75A mounts for my 5spd fit. I actually ordered them a month and a half ago.. Innovative is really slow on making mine for some reason.. They keep telling me that they are in powder coat and should be out soon.. that's the same thing i've heard for the past 4 weeks tho when I ask.

I ordered mine through swapshopracing.com. They are the cheapest I could find online.

I used to have the Spoon engine torque damper in my car, but after installing my turbo there's no room for it so I had to sell it. Its an ok option to try to eliminate wheel hop, but I found that it put too much stress on my stock mounts and really chewed them up.

 

yea i ordered mine and they sent me an order verification but i doubt i will get them anytime soon. damn lazy companies!

 

engine torque dampers help kill wheel hop too.

 

i can vouch for that im running the ingalls torque damper.. im not even on the stiffest neither..

 

I bought an engine torque dampining bar off Ebay and it made a world of difference , Power goes right to the pavement. easy install

 

I wonder how long that'll last...

 

ETDs do help, but they are a temporary fix. In my case I had the Spoon ETD and after 4 months of use, my front stock mount turned into mush.

In the end, I think it would've been best to just replace the stock mounts with Innovative poly mounts. Its a more involved install and a little more costly, but definitely the better route to take

 

Its an Ingalls they are the best and FIRST out there......sorry not that overpriced Js racing junk

 

Oh... You didn't say it was an Ingalls. All you said was that you got one off ebay.

 

Yeah my mistake...... in my reply I could see why you thought that... it did look like I bought one of those Ebay wanna be junks LOL
Have a Happy Thanksgiving

 

i believe spoon was the first for the GD3. they've been making them for JDM Fits since like 2002.

 

think i could get by with 60A if i'm a run ignalls etd too?
issues?

 

You could also try doing this:
