What brand motormounts are the Mazdatrix mounts?

They have both regular and "competition" mounts, but whose mounts are they?

MFR used to be Mazda Competition or Mazda Comp for short.
They changed their name to Mazdaspeed, just to add confusion.

The catalog is now converted for online viewing, but you need to be a member (i.e. password) to view this information.

And just as a product review, they are GREAT! I've put comp. mounts in the engine and trans so far and they have very little increased vibration transmitted and you get (I'm guessing here) 90% of the stiffness of poly mounts. I'll be getting the diff mounts for sure.

I agree.
I run the engine mounts, and I love them!

After I get teh engine rebuilt I'm gonna get the engine and tanny mounts. I already have the diff mounts sitting in a box. The previous owner gave them to me and I never got around to installing them.

I guess these win over the Banzai mounts, which parts do I need for the trans mounts?

MOUNT TRANS REAR 86-92 SIDE OF Y COMP 39-3400-FBY1
MOUNT TRANS REAR 89-92 TURBO (SADDLE) 39-3700-FC18

I've installed the tranny mounts (w/ new crossmember), and have the motor mounts ready to go, just have yet to install them. Thanks for the reviews, now maybe I'll get off my duff and get it done.
