Renegade is a raceway about an hour away from the Tri-Cities right by Yakima, WA. First import races are Saturday the 17th and he's coming.

wtf is the tri cities?
90civicracer
04-13-2004, 12:58 AM
3 cities right by eachother...and they are Kennewick, Pasco, and Richland.
90civicracer
04-13-2004, 12:59 AM
...in Southeast Washington. Most people say the Tri-Cities so you don't have to specify which one of the three.

Its wierd, because each of the "Tricities" is an individual city, however, put together its the 2nd or 3rd largest city in WA. But no one pays attention, not like I care, I just wanna get outta here

dude, you don't even need that mount! I don't have one, my boy Ray with a Y8 swap doesn't have one, and I know numerous people where i live and on these forums that don't have one. It's useless. Why do you think when you do a B-series swap, they NEVER sell the front mount? Because it's useless and would be a waste of time and money to sell it because it's not needed. I say fuck it. You won't notice a difference with it broken.

i asked him on aim about if he feels a difference and he says his engine jerks way too much now. Josh, have you checked all your other mounts?

04-13-2004, 11:18 AM
Yeah thats the first thing that I did, the one on the left side of the tranny, that has that mountin plate on the tranny, that ones startin to get weak as well, but Im only gonna take care of this front one for the time being. Next paycheck, I might have to sacrifice those bars to get a set of new mounts, and I'll try to find that mountin plate also and get it done right.

if that rear ones weak replace it. its probably what is causing the jerking more than the front one would
91lxdreamer
04-13-2004, 11:45 AM
Yeah I will, I just popped my hood and see the amount of back and forth movement, and if that mount were in place, it wouldnt be doing that as much. This is more of a temp fix for this week to get me by on one more business trip, then I'll fix it right...

my front mount broke, no big deal. shoot, all the civics' in my driveway have or had the front busted :dunno: it wasn't a problem until another mount (i do believe it was the rear) broke. you could immediatly feel all hell breaking loose. it almost felt like a busted axle
i'm not shocked i busted either mounts...with some help from my lil friend mr. stage 2 clutch :evillol:

did you get your mount?.... also... I know a lot of times the mounts have cracks in them.. get some window sealer from an auto parts store ( the kind for your front windshield) and just cram the mount full of it. It make one stiff mount...

Whered you go, did they just weld it or something?
And thanks Ami, I gotta get that one fixed then, soon, its rigged in there right now, the mounting plate has a quarter sized hole in it, so I put a bigger washer over that hole and stuck the bolt through to get me by. I went out today and while it was runnin, I played with the throttle, and very little movement, but I can sure as hell feel it every time I shift. The mount itself is fine, its the mounting plate...where the hell can I find one of those?

I was thinkin about it, but its the metal housing that snapped, and on top of that, if I did that, itd be harder than hell to get out, and I dont want to make it harder on myself when I do my swap later.

Ya, I just got it welded but its an aftermarket B series mount.. Not like stock ones.
