Okay, after I finish installing some prothane motor mount inserts, my whole car start to vibrate alot, ....like a vibrator.....??? it's starting to scare the **** out of me, because sounds like my whole car gonna break??? Also, when revving up to 4,000-5,000 rpm, the manifold and muffler vibrate...just wanted to know if this typical and normal...Is there anyway I can reduce the vibration?

Hmmm... I dont know about the Teg. But my Prelude is never that ruff.
It vibrates a bit, but never enough to shake my manifold or muffler...and I got a solid front mount + rear mount insert. The higher the rpm, the less I feel it. I would say the most ruff part of the rpm range is around 700-1000rpm.

Lot of the RSX owners and myself included have gone through this. The vibration stopped completely once the inserts set in and sorta "get used to" being in there.

ah, ok. My insert was already used for a bit. Maybe thats why I dont get any vibration. :goodjob: Good to know.
