Description
With a high power engine, your stock engine mounts (commonly referred to as "motor mounts") have a hard time keeping the engine from moving around under power. Also, factory mounts can crack with as little as 60,000 miles on them. We recommend changing these every time you have the engine out, unless you make a real habit of it.
These stiffer Mazda Competition mounts are made of 40% stiffer rubber to help keep the engine under control. Shifting will be easier as the transmission will move less - you`ll be less likely to make the classic 2-5 shift. There is an increase in noise, vibration and harshness - this doesn't bother some people, but if you drive with the top up most of the time you might want to consider our stock replacement parts instead.
These are Mazda Competition parts which are usually only available to racers. They are not the same mounts that are used on the Mazdaspeed MX-5 turbo car.
Two needed per car, sold individually. Fits all NA and NB Miatas, including the Mazdaspeed.

Amazing fast ship My and they all way leave a cool sticker thank you guys so much for looking out for the Miata’s
Great upgrade absolutely changed the entire feel of the car, highly recommend to anyone needing to replace their mounts
FOR THE RECORD I DID NOT BUY THESE FROM FM. They came with the car when I bought it. Figured I'd still post a review to brag about them, lol.
The motor mounts on my NB1 (non ABS) were fairly easy to come out and swap. Passenger side is easier for sure. Driver side requires a bit of dancing to do correctly. If you have headers it's probably super easy. My mounts with 160k miles in the FL weather were somehow not torn or shredded up too bad at all. They were a good 1/4" maybe flatter than these nice new ones, so I did have to move the engine around a bit to squeeze the assembly with the bracket on it into the engine bay.
These mounts greatly improved my shifting and engine flopping problem. Even though they didn't seem too bad, my engine wobbled and flopped around like it was trying to escape alcatraz. These guys are awesome. A little bit more noise and vibration (more of a mild buzz) felt but it's so worth it and I honestly forget about it driving around.
Night and day difference. When I first got my Miata the car was very hard to shift. Essentially at first I needed to wait for the motor settling down. And I could feel it from off throttle cuz the car would jerk a little bit. It was hard to put smooth power down. I thought it was my problem and learnt better throttle control. Today I had the mounts changed. Turnt out both of the old mounts were completely torn. Felt the difference right from turning the key. There is a ton less off throttle vibration. The shifter doesn’t shake all over the place any more. Incrediblely easy to get in gear. Power was put down a lot smoother. In my special case, NVH is decreased (guess the old one was so torn). Will definitely recommend. My car is a CA spec 99 Miata. The precat did make removal a little more challenging but still doable. Just needed to dissemble the mount from lower bracket while in the car. Also taking off splash guard would help big time.
