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.

This mount should be the first thing you buy for your Mazda 3 and definitely if you upgrade to a short shifter. You will notice immediately the difference in shifting and transfer of power to the ground after installing. Takes about 100 miles or so to break in after that you only notice extra vibration on start up.

Dude!.... this is the best mod I've ever done to any car, even better then the one on my Mazda 2 makes it so much more drivable, cleaner shifts, cleaner takeoffs, it made the car almost more fun to drive then my rx7. I'd say this a good place to start if your unhappy with shifter feel/ pedal response.

Its as easy to install as it is influential on the car. And by that I mean VERY much so. I was able to remove the old one and install the new RMM in a matter of minutes. Upon startup, there is a bit of vibration, but it isnt bad! In fact, I love it! You can feel it throughout the gears even somewhat at high revs. It definitely feels more raw and mean. Not to mention my launches have never been better! This is a great mod if you really want to feel an increase in performance!

I use my 2010 mazdaspeed 3 primarily as a commute vehicle, 90 mile round trip each day. Luckily, I'm one of the lucky people that actually get to drive on a smooth, scenic, curvy highway each way. The Corksport Rear Motor Mount is a joy to own and is most appreciated when shifting. It eliminates the lull between shifts, so you reduce the 'head-bobbing" effect that occurs when you are between gears. When you start the car, there is an increase in cabin rumble that is only audible to people inside the vehicle. This rumble may or may not be for you, but it definitely gives your car a more raw feeling. My female roommate (who is a female) mentioned that the car felt more primal. It is slightly more annoying with the AC is on because that causes more shake when you are at a light. But everything above 700rpm is completely within range of reason. Part of me hopes my girlfriend borrows my car again only to declare that my car sucks and she no longer wants to drive it ever again so I can hog it to myself. Install this part and declare your manhood.

I just installed this today & already love it .. When you rev the engine you can feel the power through your steering wheel. I was a little bit nervous about the "vibration" that I had read about .. But even fresh out of the package I love the feeling of it. Torque steer is 99% gone which is an added bonus, plus WAY cleaner shifting .. for $125 you literally can not go wrong .. This is this the first upgrade I'd do if I hadn't done it yet!

Just installed it, and, well, that 'clunk' I heard after 1st-2nd shifts is now gone. I had been restraining myself from hard launches with the stock RMM, and babying the thing going into 2nd gear. Can't wait to see what my used Gen1 MS3 can do. Subjectively the car now feels, how can I say it, 'lit', and more purposeful- the bark upon starting is louder and meaner; the idle and exhaust note seem more alive yet smoother. I suppose I can get on the throttle a bit more now.

The mount was an easy install. The vibrations were a bit much in the beginning but as it breaks in they go away. I absolutely love how it changes the dynamics behind shifting, especially from a stop to first gear. There is no wheel hop and the torque steer is all but gone from first and second gear. The old motor mount was actually kind of scary looking considering my car has just under 65000km, If you're looking to start modding, start with this.

I bought the RMM inserts first. While it did improve the shifting and wheel hop a bit, this mount is in a completely different class. Shifting is a dream and with the rear sway bar, this car is glued to the road. I love it.
