GB: Noltec Motor Mount for RX-3,RX-4, RX-5, & Series I-V

Just a heads up. For our next Motor Mount GB we will, for the first time!, be offering Noltec motor mounts for all Mazda rotaries from the RX-3 up. The feedback from the 3rd gen community has been outstanding so we thought we'd share the wealth.

Here's a picture of the mounts that have been developed by Noltec to work on the RX-3, RX-4, RX-5 and RX-7 Series 1-5:



I posted this in the tech section because I am looking for RX-3 through Series V owners who are interested in doing some testing for a significant discount. PM me if interested.

thanks,
Robert

Good call. Did some research and found that these mounts also fit onto the RX2 and RX100 coupe.

I am dropping a motor in my 2 shortly. If I get in on the group buy, how long before I would see my set? and what is the cost?

I'll work on getting an ETA, but the cost will be 275 shipped including Paypal fees.

Hate to thread jack but I just got Noltec bushings for RX-2 locally in California. If we get them from you they are going from Australia to England then to the US. Too much added freight for us broke old school guys!

No worries there. The mounts aren't going to the UK at any point, but hey if you can completely eliminate shipping then good on ya. I'm just trying to help out.

Thanks for the question, as you forced me to further research the pricing on these and realize that I was cross-referencing the wrong PN (I have never imported these specific mounts before). I apologize, as I was not trying to inflate the price or screw anyone over (hopefully you'll trust my word as a long-time member on that). The older gen mounts retail at $180 therefore:

Price Correction for the older mounts:

$180 retail
+$15 shipping
+ 3% PayPal
___________
=200 shipped (rounded up 18 cents to the closest dollar)

cheers,
Robert

Stock mounts are significantly more expensive, for the FD anyway. I'm sure the older mounts are the same way.
