HRD Precision Machined Drivetrain Mount Kit for 2012-2015 Honda Civic Si - Apex Silver
The 9th Gen Honda Civic Si rewards every smart upgrade you make. As you add power, grip, and more serious suspension, the downsides of your soft OEM drivetrain mounts quickly become apparent. The drivetrain moves more than it should, shifts feel a little vague, and putting power down cleanly out of corners becomes harder than it needs to be. If you're after a full drivetrain overhaul, you've come to the right place. What you are feeling is excessive drivetrain motion that your OEM mounts are allowing to occur. While your factory mounts are designed to favor complacency over drivetrain connectedness, once you've began modifying your 9th Gen or doing your first track days the trade-offs become more apparent than ever. The HRD Precision Machined 2012-2015 Honda Civic Si Drivetrain Mount Kit is built to tighten that connection and let the rest of your setup work as intended. Our drivetrain mounts are designed to better control how the engine and gearbox move under load, especially during hard shifts, launches, and rapid on/off throttle transitions. By reducing unwanted movement of your drivetrain, gear engagement feels more positive, power is more effectively put down, and your inputs translate more cleanly to forward motion. The result is a more direct, mechanical feel from the driver’s seat. Shifts slot in with greater confidence, mid-corner corrections feel more precise, and the chassis as a whole responds with a sharper, more unified character. We precision machine our mounts out of billet 7000-series alloy for its superior strength characteristics, taking the at any cost approach that HRD is known for. Instead of replacing the entire lower bracket assembly, our transmission mount is designed to work with the factory Honda lower bracket. That decision is intentional. The OEM bracket keeps factory geometry and alignment, which means you get OE-level fitment without fighting the car during installation. Retaining the OEM lower bracket also pays off for enthusiasts already running, or planning to run, a battery relocation tray. Using the OEM lower bracket maintains compatibility with popular aftermarket battery tray relocation kits, avoiding the interference issues that a full replacement solution creates. The end result is simple. A cleaner, easier install that fits the way it should the first time, with all of the benefits you've come to expect from a component engineered for performance without compromise. True to HRD’s dual-duty philosophy, each of our 9th gen drivetrain mounts ships ready to run with our 65A polyurethane bushings pre-installed. This durometer is an ideal choice for most street and spirited driving builds, offering a dramatic reduction in drivetrain movement over stock while keeping NVH at a very reasonable level. For drivers who want to push the chassis even harder, every mount also includes a full set of our 80A bushings in the box. Swapping to the stiffer bushings increases drivetrain rigidity further, sharpening shift feel with an even greater reduction in wheel hop for dual-duty or track-focused cars. On the street, you will notice cleaner on/off throttle transitions and a more cohesive, connected feel from the front end. On track or during hard driving, the feedback becomes more predictable, letting you focus on your line instead of managing slop in the drivetrain. The end result is a refined, true dual-duty and motorsports ready drivetrain package.
