)... that's why were looking for a cheaper option...
While doing the DIY, could you take clear pictures of the brackets included in the kit? I want to check if a damper kit from another engine (or car) can be customised to fit the D17...
For those who have one, how is the vibration in the car afterward? On the RSX, they recommand to put some dynamat under the bracket of the strut tower to reduce some of it... how about the D17???

Stiffening up the engine and basically bolting it to the car will make the car shake a lot. But then again thats a good thing. Try driving a k20 swap with lvl 2 urathane in it lol. That shakes like a bitch at first, and now im about to add one of these. Im prepared to shake rattle and roll baby! oh yeah~
