MS6 from Australia

[sniff the psi]

Hey, I live in Australia and own a Mazda 6 MPS (Mazdaspeed 6) in Black Mica.

59,xxx km on the clock.

Mods include:
- Turbosmart Dual-Port BOV
- HTP Polished Aluminum Turbo Inlet Pipe (Hi-Tuned Performance)
- SURE Motorsports Aeros Short Ram Intake
- SURE Motorsports Torq R6 Rear Engine Mount
- SURE Shortcut
- SURE Counterweight
- SURE Anchors
- Eibach Pro-Kit Springs on Stock dampers, want to be running on Bilstein B8's in the future
- Rota G-Force 18 x 8.5 +38 on 235/40/18
- White T10 LED parking lights, interior lights, number plate lights and boot light
- 8000k D2C HID bulbs
- Car-LED tail lights

Think my transmission mount is stuffed, WOT in 1st or 2nd or 3rd gear and clutching in quickly to shift to next gear makes a loud clunk / thump noise. Can't be my rear engine mount because it's only been installed for about 1000 km's. Any idea guys?

That about sums it up (breakn)

clunk noise come from the back? I get a clunk but up front so I suspect it's my passenger side motor mount thats bad.

One more thing....about your rotas...are you sure they arent +48?
If not id like to see some pics as I want to get the g-forces and if I can find them in a +38 id be much happier, only thing I see online is +48

Yeah they are +38, I got them locally in Australia for $999.

I haven't had time to take any decent photos but I took a quick one so I could see how much the ride height would settle in, http://i54.tinypic.com/atl08g.jpg

guess we cant get them in the states if they are indeed +38 which makes me sad

Email Rota directly and they will make it in a +38 offset for you

I got them locally and they have a lot of offsets that aren't listed on the websites.
