No one cares about your necrobump ;)

So. Should I buy speed like the ones at track dog or comps like the ones on flyin miata. I have read this whole thread and cant figure out what the consense is?

What's the purpose of the car? DD, track rat, both?

90 Turbo 12-26-2011 07:55 PM

Sorry. DD and some autocross. I would like to track someday after I upgrade brakes and cooling, etc.

From my extremely limited knowledge of engine mounts I'd say get something on the "soft" side. If you get something too hardcore the car will vibrate like crazy and drive you nuts.

Everyone who isn\'t using comp mounts is a moron. Anything softer and the shifter feels like shit. Anything stiffer and the car rattles itself to pieces.

90 Turbo 12-26-2011 11:01 PM

Ok so comp mounts. where is the best place to buy them?

FRT_Fun 12-27-2011 12:24 AM

FM, think 949 sells them too. Apparently trackspeed sells them as well.

Sorry to necro-bump this thread, but I thought some of you might find this useful. I recently purchased these "Mazdaspeed" mounts from Corksport believing they were Mazdacomps (before I read this thread). Lo and behold, it turns out they really are MazdaComps. Corksport's price beats everyone but MazdaComp by a good margin for those of you without a membership.

As an employee of CorkSport, I can verify that we do in fact just list the Mazda Comp mounts as "MazdaSpeed" because back when we started carrying them that was still the brand name they were sold under, and we never got around to changing it.

Before you all go to our website and notice that the picture is wrong, yes, I know.

Also, they're $76 a pair on our site.

I figured as much when I was doing all this looking around before making this thread. No problem bumping this thread with good information and a confirmation of what you guys really mean by "mazdaspeed". Thanks!

Late post, but I just installed Mazda Comp mounts from 949 Mazda Comp Motor Mounts 90-05 Miata and it's unbearable. Coming from the guy that has racelands that says a lot :(

Comp mounts suck dick. Loose butthole limp dick floppy phallus piece of shit mounts.

Fireindc 12-30-2013 09:40 AM

I love my mazcomps, buffon - do you mean they are too stiff? cause, lol! Have you given them time to break in a little?

Yeah they transfer a lot of vibration it's ridiculous. I can't drive at more that 65 without feeling the car is falling apart. I drove about 300 miles already with them...

concealer404 12-30-2013 12:13 PM

If they're giving that much vibration, is it possible that something else is very wrong? Like... loose subframe? 7/10 fasteners throughout the entire car missing?

I don't see how that can be possible. Only the brackets and mounts were taken off nothing else was touched.

I don't either, which is why you're getting the responses you're getting.

You might be the only person on the face of the planet besides 90 year old Miata.netters with raging hems that find these mounts to be awful in the comfort department.

:vash::vash: ugh

well I just wanted to comment about the mounts. Let's take other convo here https://www.miataturbo.net/suspensio...ts-hell-76764/ and stop hijacking the thread.
