i've got the new engine in my 10AE in, bolted to the trans, however, i've got a bad right motor mount. i tried an aftermarket mount and it was just all wrong. and now, no one can get the mount. the only way i can get the mount is through black dragon or mazdatrix. i really need to get this engine secured in today. i was wondering if anyone has used a first gen rx-7 mount? they're are the exact same design. i'm thinking i can make it work. i have a few spare mounts that i can try. what do you guys think?

 

any thoughts? the title has been edited by a mod. i know the mounts are not the same but similar. it appears that the first gen mounts are a tad smaller but the same design.

 

Use a factory 2nd gen mount. They are identical on either side. Using any thing else is just stupid

 

how was the mount wrong?

 

The mounts are the same for each side.

part # FB01-39-040
retail goes for about $59 USDM

 

i was an aftermarket mount. the angle of teh stud sticking through the aluminum arm was wrong. the FB mount is the same type of mount as the FC mount and with very close dimentions. it was worth asking.

 

i used the FB upper and the FC lower and it worked just fine. the mount fit pretty well!
