A real engine or transmission mount isolates vibration with a rubber (or urethane) block that can move in tension, compression and shear. The bolt does not pass right through the rubber. Stiffer versions, if that's what you want, are available from Mazdaspeed.
The Banzai Racing transmission and engine mounts are urethane blocks with a bolt through them. In compression, the bolt will go loose. In tension the bolt will eliminate all compliance. In shear the bolt has to tilt in the mounting holes. In short, the Banzai Racing mounts are crap.

I'm a fan of solid engine and tranny mounts, though some people will tell you it causes vibration. I really only get noticeable vibration from then above 60 mph.
