I was changing out my front and rear motor mounts today and while i was looking at the old mounts i started thinking about making a solid metal mount to go where the rubber insert is. I was thinking to find a solid piece of metal cylinder and cutting it to fit inside and welding that in. Then drilling out the center to weld the inner part. Im thinking this should help alot with shifting and throttle response.

I've seen my buddies do it on their civics with no problems so it should work for ours. BTW im only planning on doin the rear mount, maybe the front too depending on the amount of work it takes.

I can't see any combo that would hurt response. It will add wear to drive train parts. I've got polley mounts right now, and they do good. Metal would give some awsome response. I would be worried about doing more than one though. I would just do the one at the back of the engine bay first.
