Hockey pucks work really well. The vibes are slightly more noticeable than with competition motor mounts but less than solids. I wouldn't run solid mounts again.
I just installed a set of hockey pucks in my brother's FB. I have another set that will probably go in the GLC. Another set is planned for the REPU.

You're looking for the hard rubber ones. Look for ones that say "official NHL".
I used a couple of pieces of metal plate with the puck sandwiched between them, with a few washers so the engine sits at the correct angle.

The pucks percent found were $1.99 each. I'm no mathmagician but that's some pretty significant savings if you already have the metal plate kicking around, and a couple bolts and washers. Plus they move less so there's no need for a torque restrictor catch.
Hey I drove the FB for the first time today and the hockey pucks felt great! Perhaps even better than percent's car. I made a slight improvement in design over the ones in percent's car. The only thing that changed was the top plate. It was replaced by a 1/4" thick aluminum plate. This is not only slightly lighter, but there's no need for washers between the front mount bar and the top plate of the puck. It gives a larger contact patch, and being aluminum, might help in other ways vibration-wise. Not sure about that last part, but they sure turned out great!

Iv'e been thinking about making the engine bracket(the pc between the mounts) with aluminum/alum angle. Could be much lighter, esp if you used a torque brace similar the one RB offers.

Not sure if anyone mentioned that Mazdatrix sells competition mounts which are stiffer than stock but not so stiff that everything in the car vibrates. I am not much for solid mounts so I with with these on my cosmo swap, and I like the output of them with not alot of vibrate at all.

The Mazdatrix mounts are made by Racing Beat. They say they're 40% stiffer than stock. If that's the case, I'd put hockey pucks at around 60% stiffer than stock. The vibration still isn't bad, pretty similar to the RB mounts, just with a bit less engine movement.
