I've seen Strongflex and the rear subframe bushings they do - both in red and yellow for differing hardness, not seen any offerings from others in my searching.
Potentially leaning towards the yellows, definitely not just because of the colour match

Am I reading into this wrong? I read as the suspension arms/bushings do most that work and the subframe flexible mounts/bushings just for NVH?warpc0il wrote: ↑Tue Feb 04, 2025 6:02 pmThe flexible mounts were crafted not only to isolate NVH but the rear especially is designed so that lateral forces from cornering produce a given amount of deflection, resulting in rear wheel steering. This is one of the reasons that the RX-8 was handling so much better than its competitors.
You may feel a harder "shunting" when loading/unloading the transmission - I definitely noticed that with mine, though it's not overt. I have the RRP engine mounts which could be contributing in conjunction as well though.HarSc wrote: ↑Tue Feb 04, 2025 5:15 pmIt'll firm up the rear big time I reckon, but we shall see how harsh it makes it. I'm hopeful that the Mazda arms/suspension bushings will keep it ok for bumps/undulations, but it's uncharted waters as nobody's been silly enough to do this combomat well have got it wrong, but will report back if I have
