Need ES Inserts Fast! - Where from??

I looked online and I can't find any place that has the 02 ES motor mount inserts that can priority ship them. I looked on energysuspensionparts.com and asked them and they said their supplier can't do priority. What option do I have? I am taking my car in on the 1st for header and spacer install and tuning and I want to do this at the same time, so I need them quick. Thanks

$80 + $32 (overnigiht shipping) = $112.

Is that what you mean by priority?

Those are the mounts. I'm looking for the inserts, should be around $25 bucks. Mounts will be too harsh as far as vibration.

I thought I saw it on a site. Hmm... Are the mounts really harsh than? I will have all bolt-ons as of wednesday and I thought it might be a good idea to do these as well. I don't want alot of vibration.

You'll feel a bit of a kick when you first start the car. But if you are going full boltons you will want the motor mount inserts. You'll be getting wheel hop all over the place with the stock rubber crap in there. Those sub frame bushings you might be talking about won't do much by themselves.

And I'm pretty sure that Brian Catts, can ship you them pretty fast too.

Cattman, he's in the group deal section, selling headers and suspension stuff. You can call him on his 1-800 number ask for brian, tell him you want everything next day shipped and he wll quote the price.

Both of them?

And how long would it take a shop to do this?

Might as well do both since the crossmember will be out. The second set is only about 25 bucks, Drop the crossmember, press out the bushings, press in the new ones shouldn't take too long. The smaller ones will take 5 minutes. Put the crossmember back in. If they have the right tools, 2 hours tops.

Awesome, thanks. Hopefully, the shop will have the time to do it on that day. They had to squeeze me in as it was. Let's see what they have to say...

I installed mine recently that I bought from knight_yyz, they made a big difference. Especially on start up and when I shut off the car. But just everyday driving it feels much better. Took a little over an hour for install. And I did the sub frame bushings.

Got them ordered, $116 shipped from UltraRev because Cattman was out of them. Talked to my tuner, thankfully he said he can get those in on the 1st too. One thing I'm not happy about is that I told him I was getting the VAFC and he assumed I was going to install it before bringing it in. I don't know how he thought that, so now I am getting charged $150 more over the previous price just for install of the VAFC.

It sucks that I can't do the work myself or find anyone from here to do it. I'd rather help them out. My parts cost is like $650, but for the shop to install the headers, spacers, motor mounts, VAFC and tune is $1275 out the door.

Wow, that is a lot of money. But, it should take them the lion's share of the workday to do the work so you'll likely get what you pay for. Also, you'll have a much faster, tunable car. Besides, if something messes up after the install they'll likely troubleshoot it for free.

My thought as well, pay to play I guess.

That's a hell of a lot of work to do in one day so that price is probably pretty reasonable. You'll love the car a lot more when it is all said and done.

Yeah, I know I will love it more but it seems like alot. But I am getting the car dynoed before and after. I'm going to try and get a clip of the exhaust before and after because I never did and I want to see the difference.

I think I'm going to have to add a larger resonator. It's pretty loud now, can't imagine with the headers lol
