I bought a set of AZ race Motor Mounts with Polyutrethane bushings. I got the 2 installed, but I guess whoever did the swap in my car, sued the front radiator motor mount, and did not use the rear mount that attatches to the crossmember. Can anyone take a pic of their rear one for me?

I use hasport mounts in my crx. Since the mounts are so damn strong, it only requires using the engine mount, rear transmission mount, and side transmission mount(that's actually what the kit comes with). The front mount will just be left off. I'll try to take a pic of the rear mount tonight and post it.
If there is no mount on the rear cross member, u need to use a integra mounting bracket to bolt onto the b16a, then bolt the motor mount onto the crossmember, then bolt the 2 together...

The AZ Race Mounts are the Exact saem CNC Machined Copy of the Hasports. The reason is, I got 3 mount with the kit, and I could on use 2 cause the one that is supposed to go to the rear was never hooked to anything. So let me know what I need to get to hook the rear one up. I am SURE my car will drive hella better wit ha Stron polyurethane mount in the back.

Yeah, when your engine torques forward and backward, that mount normally will hold it in place. Using only two mounts will 1, put alot more stress on those 2 mounts and 2, torque forward or backward more under accelleration creating unwanted handling.
Sorry didn't have time to post the pic last night, here it is:
The black bracket u can see in the pics is the engine mounting bracket. The silver piece is the mount itself. The black bracket is probably what u need. It's actually a large bracket attached with I think 2 bolts to the engine. U need to get the bracket from a 90-93 integra ls, and the 2 bolts.
