7th gen stiff motor mounts?

I cant find any stiff mounts or mount inserts for my 93, are none made or are there inserts for another car that will work? i mostly just want a front insert thats stiffer than stock. its 78mm across and 38mm wide with the the through bolt in the center.

I was looking into that window weld stuff which to me looked and sounded kinda hoaky so i went on a hunt and i found this stuff..

It should work, just be careful of the durometer (how hard or soft it is\

To do it i suppose you could just fill around the rubber but my preference would be too remove the old rubber and totally re-cast the mounts

i've heard some bad stories about home cast mounts just breaking, the material simply cracks. even some profesionally made urethane ones just crack, and after handling the material used to make the mounts from, i can totally understand why. to get the hardness desired, its pretty easily broken stuff. it doesnt flex, it breaks. now the inserts i just installed on a guys eclipse felt more like hard vinyl then urethane and were very tough material that didnt seem like it would sheer easily at all.

that material you linked was exactly what i was looking at, and its what i've seen some people use and then break as well.

I havent driven with them yet, because my car is undergoing work, but I'm pretty sure they wont have any problems lasting. They're solid, so they dont have any chance to crack.

those are the kind that i've seen break most often tho, the solid ones. but the material used to fill them was a more brittle urethane or over time and exposure to heat and constant stress the urethane became brittle. so whats the manufatuer of the gunk you used to fill it and the name of their product?
