Mazdaspeed transmission mount (driver's)

[ddogg777]

I purchased some Mazdaspeed engine mounts and I noticed that the driver's side mounting bracket that goes on top of the transmission is entirely different than the one on my Protege5. Can someone post a picture of your engine mount so that I can verify that I got the right part? I thought the transmission housings were the same.
Thanks!

What engine mount do you need a picture of?

 

[Wiggles422]

NVM I assume the one you were talking about. (bang)

Do you want a pic of stock mount or an aftermartket? I can run go take a pic of my stock one, if that'll help. (shrug)

The stock Mazdaspeed mount. And yes, it is the driver's mount (on top of the tranny).

I couldn't get a very good angle of it. But I hope these will help.

Edit: I can take off the air filter if you think that would show more of the mount.

Oh that is soooo close. I just need to see the three bolts mounted to the transmission. Thanks for trying though!!!

I thought the MSP mounts were the same as the Proteges? (dunno)

EXACTLY! That's why I need a picture, because this mount is definately different than my P5.

Actually what I was trying to say was I thought the MSP mounts were same, as in 'no upgrade from stock P5 mounts'.

The number 3 mount is different. Its stiffer, no clue if the tranny mount is any different.

EXACTLY! That's why I need a picture, to verfiy that this is the right mount because I thought they were the same too.
And yes, the passenger mount is a stiffer rubber, that's all. But I thought the other three were exactly the same. Someone stick your camera down and take a picture of the three mounting bolts on top of the transmission. That will solve my quandry.

I only saw two bolts/nuts holding the tranny to the mount (but one could've been hidden where I couldn't see it) Anyways these pics are larger than the previous ones to give you a better look.

 

[ddogg777]

aha!! That's is, the tranny mount that he gave me was for an automatic, grrrr. Mazdaspeeds don't come with autos do they?

 

[Wiggles422]

Nope.
