Innovative Mounts Replacement Engine Mount Kit - 2008-2012 Honda Accord V6 (Manual)
Own one of the rare manual V6 Accords and want it to feel as good as it should? Start with the mounts. If yours has some miles on it, the factory engine mounts are almost certainly worn out, and that's why the car clunks on and off the throttle, buzzes over bumps, and hops the wheels when you launch it. These Innovative Mounts fix all of that. They ditch the soft, fluid-filled factory mounts for stiffer polyurethane, so your J35 sits planted, the throttle wakes up, and that wheel hop settles right down. And you get to pick how firm you want it, with three durometers running from easy-street to full track.
What's Actually Wrong With Your Old Mounts
Here's the story on the factory pieces. Your OEM mounts have damping fluid sealed inside to keep things quiet, and that works fine when they're new. Problem is, they don't stay new, the fluid leaks out, the mount goes soft, and now there's nothing holding your V6 still. A torquey engine with a manual behind it rocks those tired mounts around constantly, and every bit of that slop shows up as clunks, lazy shifts, and wheel hop off the line. Innovative's mounts throw out the fluid and go solid polyurethane, so the engine quits wandering and stays put. Power goes into moving the car instead of rocking the motor, and everything feels tighter and more connected the instant you get on it. The honest trade is a little more vibration in the cabin, which is exactly why they let you choose your stiffness.
Three Durometers, Street To Track
Softer rides smoother and quieter, stiffer holds the engine harder for razor response but passes through more buzz. Pick the one that matches how you actually use the car:
- 75A. The street choice. Noticeably better response and control while keeping your daily drive comfortable. This is the one for most people.
- 85A. The in-between. Firmer and more locked-down for when you push the car, with only a moderate bump in vibration.
- 95A. The track setup. Stiffest of the bunch, maximum response, and it doesn't pretend to be comfortable, that's the point.
Quick guide: daily it, go 75A. Drive it hard on weekends, 85A. Building a track car, 95A.
Built To Take It, And Bolts Up Clean
Innovative knows these live a hard life, so they built them for it. The no-tear bushings knock down vibration and hold up to abuse, and the mounts are CAD/CAM designed and stress analyzed so they fit right and don't flinch under a V6's torque. They use your stock hardware, so the install doesn't turn into a scavenger hunt for parts, and the whole kit carries a lifetime warranty. That's the kind of backing you want on something working this hard.
A Word On Installing Them
One heads-up: swapping engine mounts means supporting the engine safely while you work, so it's more than a simple bolt-on. If you've got the tools and the know-how, have at it. If not, let a shop knock it out so it all goes back together right.

Note: Innovative Mounts replacement engine mount kit for the 2008-2012 Honda Accord V6 (CP3/CS2 chassis) with the J35 V6 engine and manual transmission. These stiffer polyurethane mounts remove the damping fluid used in the OEM mounts to sharpen engine response and reduce wheel hop for a more direct feel; stiffer durometers hold the engine tighter but transfer more vibration into the cabin. Available in three durometers from street to track: 75A (street), 85A (aggressive street), and 95A (track). Features no-tear vibration-minimizing bushings, CAD/CAM design, stress analysis, and use of stock/OEM hardware, and is backed by a lifetime warranty.
