1997 accord Transmission problem

RE: 1997 accord Transmission problem
Yes, definitely, stay away from these mounts, they look good, but the one i got was really too stiff.
It's much better to order a used one from ebay, i saw a lot of these for about 25 usd.
This seller "hondapartsunlimited" has a lot of excellent used OEM honda stuff.
I sent an email to the ebay store (ABC Marts Power Pro) to complain about the mount quality but they didn't even reply.
"Cary,
I ended up throwing away your engine mount.
FYI, the material used to make the mount is way too stiff, after i installed your mount, the car started vibrating like never before.
I bought a Honda oem used mount from a junkyard and it's way more soft than your product. With this used mount installed, the car doesnt vibrate at all.
I feel frustrated because last month on ebay, i saw dozens of used oem mounts (which were 25 usd) for sale but i picked yours as i thought a new mount should last longer, little did i know that i would receive a mount shaped "brick"."

A common performance upgrade is engine mounts that are much stiffer than stock. Less engine movement along with much more vibration. (But you would get a set, not just one.) This can be an acceptable trade-off for a car thats used in competition rather than driving on the street. Maybe he didnt make that clear...

Yes indeed,
It feels like a "full" engine mount, the kind you would use for competition. as i said it's like a brick
They should have mentioned this in the item description which they didn't... Next time i'll ask.

Anyway, the most important is that the problem is fixed now, my main concern originally was that the engine was "jumping" when i engaged the transmission to R or D4 in the morning, now everything is ok thanks to the very accurate diagnosis made by Dr. PAhonda.
