maybe i should try it......but i wonder if he also had the urethane ones installed.....now i need some money.....

 

[LinuxRacr]

Nope, he only has that one installed.

 

[dominoy2k1]

you gonna try it?.....

 

[perfworks]

its a good post.
i think ill give it a shot when the time comes.
as for the guy that posted it........ i think hes a prick
sorry just had to put my 2 cents in
but the mount is a great idea.

$150 for a SINGLE stock engine mount??? What a load of crap. Someone get in touch with Kartboy or RR racing and have them make us poly mount INSERTS for the passenger side mount. Should't be more than $20-$25 a pop. $150 my @ss. I got two entire poly mounts from Mazda Motorsports for $130 shipped.

I think he is a little high strung sometimes, but he relays great info more times than not.

Yes, TheMAN has a reputation of being abrasive, but he's probably the most knowledgeable non-professional (ie, not a mechanic or manufacturer) protege enthusiast I know of. But 'nuff about that. Let's stay on topic.

Hey all, I am almost 100% sure my Poly inserts will work with the front mount. That alone will make a noticable difference. The only question is whether my rear inserts will work with the MP3... Anyone willing to try and report the results....

Please suggest someone reliable, and I will send him some free inserts.

later,

rafi im looking to upgrade the mounts
give me some details on your offer and we will work some thing out.

 

[LinuxRacr]

Well, since I am currently taking my engine outta my car presently..... You think I could test these since I am already considered the MP3 Engine Tester anyway....

EDIT: Never mind, I forgot I have the AWR Motor Mounts.

 

[perfworks]

yea hes a good candidate
linux pm him
let us know how things work out.

you aren't talking about the #3 mount, are you?

 

[LinuxRacr]

That's not the title of the thread by the way

 

[perfworks]

LOL

 

[PaulMP3]

That's not the title of the thread by the way

im confused...

he stated about inserts for the front and rear. I am asking if he has a insert for the #3 mount available. I already have the front and rear.

 

[LinuxRacr]

Yeah, that's what Rafi is refering to I believe THE REAR MOUNT, not #3.

 

[PaulMP3]

I thought the rear, and #3 are different.

 

[LinuxRacr]

I thought the rear, and #3 are different.

Right! I got confused as to what Rafi was asking for, until I went back and read it. I had to back out due to the fact that I already have the AWR motor mounts waiting to be installed. I edited my posts. I would like to try out his #3 motor mounts though.

 

[Kooldino]

Yeah, Mazda motorsports makes mounts 2 and 4 (I think), so our main thing would to now have inserts for mount 3 made.
