Mazda 2 Rear Motor Mount

A must for any Mazda2. This mount is the standard in our community, and you will thank yourself when the car doesn’t fall on its face during aggressive 1-2 upshifts. You will also have better throttle response and clutch feel. Installation is a breeze and the quality of the part is unmatched. 70 durometer is the way to go for a daily driver. Upon first installation you will notice a sharp increase in NVH (noise, vibration, and harshness), but worry not! After a week or so everything will settle and you’ll forget about it while reaping all the benefits. Don’t hesitate on this mod!

Should have purchased this for my 2 sooner! Throttle response is more immediate, gear changes are more crisp. Couldn't recommend more.

Great customer service, ordered and had the product in two days! Installed the mount last night and let the wife take the car out. The install was straight forward and simple! We chose the 90 Duro for our Deuce and the NVH are not that bad. The car feels 1000% better, shifting is better, the car feels solidly underneath us and inspires more confidence on track. Quality part, quality service and a must upgrade for all Mazda 2 owners!

When I ordered this for my kid's car, I didn't think about auto vs manual trans. When the dog bone arrived, I realized that I had made a mistake. Then AWR's awesome customer service kicked in and they built me the very first torque reaction link (dog bone) for an automatic Mazda 2. Thanks guys! If your car has felt like there was a big rubber band between you pressing the throttle and anything happening, this dog bone will fix that problem. If the throttle reaction on your car has felt laggy or twitchy, this dog bone will fix that. If you were wondering if your engine was running, this dog bone will fix that - a fair bit more vibration will make it into the car. If you have old engine mounts, you'll probably want to replace those as well. Overall, I am very impressed, both with the customer service and with the difference this installing this dog bone made. It was worth every penny.

Changed the feel of the car to 100% better

I've read so much about this being the absolute best first upgrade for the Mazda 2, and now I see why. Shifting is quite smoother, but the biggest thing I've noticed is a pretty significant improvement in throttle response (Rev matching is much easier for me now). NVH is definitely noticeable, even with the 70d, but I enjoy feeling whats going on with the engine so it doesn't bother me at all. If I were to buy another 2, this would still be the first upgrade, hands down.

Fantastic improvement over the vague shift/throttle feel of the OEM mount. I ordered the 88 duro bushings for the dogbone, and I love it. Price: 10/10 Quality: 10/10. Installation took 15 minutes with seized bolts. I get the expected amount of NVH from the stiffer bushings, but that doesn't bother me at all. I love being able to hear and feel what the engine is doing. I would highly recommend this part.

Pick this up if you have a 5mt. I purchased a 70d for my daily driver. The NVH is actually kind of enjoyable but it decreases as the mount breaks in.

The sloppy excuse of a clutch is gone. This really makes the car come alive. Instant acceleration when you push the pedal. Engine braking feels better. Overall, probably the best first mod you can do.
