My Mazda: 2010 MS3, Stock(not anymore!), 99k Mi The provided instructions are Army proof, with pictures and easy to follow descriptions galore. Heed them and you won't even be in the bay long enough to eat those crayons you brought as a snack. They shipped to my APO in an unheard of 4 business days. Crazy fast. As far as the performance increase, lets just say it stomps the OEM part into the dust. Your shifts become tighter, your engine doesn't feel like it's sloshing all around the bay, and why they didn't install something like this on our cars to begin with, I'll never know. Significantly reduced wheel hop, confidant launches, and hard pulls through the powerband are now at your command. The dollar to performance level is off the charts. Spent a total of 30 minutes on this install, and if you are a total noob in the shop, this is a good way to get your feet wet and build confidence at the same time. On a side note, the increased NVH in the cabin feels badass and I'll fight anyone who thinks otherwise.

I like this mount a lot - big improvement in solid pull while accelerating from the OEM unit. It is a bit rough at idle, especially when the A/C is on. Luckily I had read the reviews before installing or I would not have been prepared for the initial vibration level which is VERY harsh at all RPMs. After a few hundred miles it settled down as other reviewers state. Installation was fairly straightforward and it appears well built. This is a good upgrade. I also installed the shifter bushings and the two upgrades really improved shift feel and solid feel while accelerating.

I bought this nearly a year ago and have since removed it because of excess noise from vibration. Maybe vibration isn't the best word to describe it, more of a banging noise. And it's not a confidence ensuring noise. What I'm talking about occurs mainly occurs when AC cycles on - it was as if there was too much clearance somewhere in the mount and what I heard was the result of .01-0.03 inches of travel. That's not quite inaccurate either. The difference inner diameter of the sleeve in my mount and M12 major diameter was over .005 inches, where I would have expected a RC6 Engineering Fit or tighter. If you experience this, try buying a 12mm ID, 19mm OD, 45mm long SSTL Bushing from McMasterCarr. I'm going to give that a shot. Other than that movement and resulting noise, I like the increased stiffness and throttle response. I'm on the fence about recommendation until I could verify a tighter bushing fit would eliminate shortcomings.

Woah This should the first upgrade on your Mazda. Installed it in Feb 2018. Took a bit longer to break in maybe due to cold weather. Upgrade was immediately noticeable with eliminated torq steer especially on slippery snow slush. I was driving with Hankook i-Cept Evo2 ...but did notice more slip before upgrade. Traction feels solid and smooth...Luv the extra engine noise

Installed this on my 2013 MS3 and works great! It has a little more vibration but it is getting better the more I drive it. I had the CP-e stage 2 Rear engine mount before this one and the vibrations were overwhelming and never changed after 1000 miles of driving. Don't buy the CP-e mount if you don't like vibrations. The corksport stage 1 does all the things the CP-e mount does without all the vibrations! Great part and easy to install!

Wow! So I bought this after riding in my buddies CooperS with high expectations. First of all, I hadn’t been under my car yet and I found out I had a Cobb RMM. Corksport totaly crushes them, this mount is absolutely amazing. Gear shifts are way smoother, torque steer is almost completely gone (you’re actually in control). This is my third upgrade from Corksport and there will be many more to follow. Buy this!

Major improvements to driveability! 2011 2.5 manual. Give it a few 100 miles to break in and any harshness will be gone. Only con that remains is minor vibration when the air compressor kicks on and car is stopped. Vibration is not noticeable once driving again. This beautiful upgrade cuts engine movement, making hard accelerations and shifts much smoother! Other mounts out there are known for being too harsh, being designed for the race track. CS hits the mark with this one!

Bought the mount a couple of weeks ago. Looks very well made and it was very easy to install. I had the corksport inserts but I wanted to give the full mount a try. Awesome results! I dont feel the engine moving during gear changes, the car feels more responsive and the shifts feel smoother. I drive a 2010 Mazda 5 with the 5 soeed manual and this mount fits no problem.

Definitely the first upgrade that should be done on the Mazdaspeed3 for performance. Just like many others I'm not one to believe the hype in a modification before doing some research of my own and learning about the pros and cons, but believe me when I say just get this. You will not be disappointed, the pros FAR outweigh the cons! The install was easy, would be almost effortless on a hoist. So far I have done around 1000km of mixed driving on the 80 Duro (black insert) mount and I can say first hand it makes the car launch a lot harder with little to no wheel hop or noticeable drivetrain movement. Shifts are way smoother and tighter and I no longer hear/feel the drivetrain moving around when shifting, and best of all it pretty much eliminated torque steer in my otherwise stock '12 Speed3. I would not be surprised if all these drivability improvements shaved some time off of the cars 0-60 and handling numbers just due to the car being more capable of putting the power down. As for NVH there was a increase after installation as expected, but give the mount some time to seat and "break in" and within 150-300km 90% of the added NVH will disappear. I notice a slight vibration when idling warm below 800rpm give or take, and a slight rumble on cold start-up, other than that it is comparable to the OEM mount. Corksport nailed this mount! I haven't tried other manufacturers' RMM's but so far I am Glad I went for CS over the others on the market.
