i dont have a ms3 or cpe mount. ive heard good things about both :D. but i have the sure motor mount on rite now, and it is totally awesome. compared to alot of others in pics, i think its alot beefier than others. no wheel hop, and butter shifting. you might get a bit more vibration in first gear which is the downside. but overall, its solid, especailly for the track.

Both are an improvment on the crappy stock mount. Go with either.

[Kwokalobster]

any aftermarket motor mount is better than the stock one. :)

and if you're on a tight budget, take a look at this one, if it's still there.

can't beat that price. Not that a cp-e one is much more. lol

Thanks alot.Im thinking SURE.

If you haven't already, check out TRZ. I'm very happy with it. Have had it installed for ~ 4 months - 8000km.

cp-e might be pricey but their stuff is worth every penny...you get what you pay for.

Would an engine motor mount fall under the 5 year 100,000 powertrain warranty? Going to have it looked at this week when I get an oil change. Car is jerky at 80+km/h (steering wheel/gas pedal/entire car) especially shortly after start up and even at lower speeds (40-70 km). It gets better at about 110 km/h and warmed up. Had bent rims but replaced them so shouldn't be that and normally those are felt at higher speeds.

I was told that the motor mounts and bushings are not covered under warrenty, this was QEW Mazda so i take faith in the fact that they tried, and this was just last week. I have the same issue you do, shuddering at 80 smoother(!) by 110. I think I might just bite the bullet and do this myself.

Actually, the motor mounts are covered under the 5 years powertrain warranty. I had mine replaced by Agincourt Mazda recently and it was over 3 years. Here's my post on it.

you came in and we told you that the motor mounts and bushings are not covered? engine mounts are covered under 5 year 100 000km warranty, however bushings would have been covered under 3 year or 80,000km warranty. so unless you are over the mileage i dont see how you would not be covered. if you send me your information i will glady check your customer file.
