RR Racing Motor Mount Buy (Please Read

Post by MazdaNoob123 »

Ok well i have been talking to Rafi from RR racing (http://www.rr-racing.com/)
Ive been trying to talk him into making a front and rear motor mount for the Mx-3. But he needs some buyers before he will make them.
i will get back to you on pricing but i think it would be around the same cost as the ones for the MX-6 (55$ for front and rear)
I still cant find anywhere in the shop manual where it says there should be a 1in hole in the side of the block. (Blown K8) #6 rod thrown through block.

Are these the inserts or the solid mounts? For that price I am guessing they are inserts... If they are the solid mount then I am interested.

I'd prefere a solid mount like AWR. i did hear about one dude trying to get AWR bto make a rear one for the mx3 as well. but if that don't go through i would like thee then.as long as they are solid urethane insert.

Agreed, preferably AWR`s direct bolt-on mounts, but if that don`t happen, RR-Racing would be really good.

sorry i wont support RR racing, Rafi screwed me over for 2 months when i was building my kf, when i was finally able to get ahold of him about the money he owed me back or the parts, he told me he never received the money even though i had proof through the paypal transaction. Took me actually threatening to take his company to court over the matter to get my parts

and you could fill your own motor mounts for cheaper than 55 dollars, and they would be just as good, why waist the money?

I would actually prefer that we have multiple option when it comes to solid mounts.

These inserts are the Ultimate thing u want if your car is a daily driver and u want comfortability. They make the mounts "pretty" solid and it keeps the vibration down to nearly none.

AWR is designing a Solid rear mount for the MX-3. I sent in mine and they are copying it now. So i will let people know when they are done. But don't get the wrong idea, These mounts will cause a good amount of vibration over stock and if your motor is running ruff it will make the ride very uncomfortable.

I supposr the RR-Racing Insert design for the inserts. Rafi is a good guy, bought many parts from him for my MX-6

I`m definetely going with AWR.

You should send in the front mount aswell, so the Mx-3 front mount would fit too, without shimming it out.

I`m sure there`s people who`d like the inserts.
Not everyone wants AWR`s stiff mounts.
