UK Engine mounts -

HI Members


Can anyone tell me where to buy Original Engine mounts for 06 RX8..?


Motor Mounts by RX-8 Performance | RX8Performance.com


seems to be the only option.


Anywhere in UK ?


Not ebay jobby as need to be exact aftermarket heat protected or original OEM.


Many thanks as usual .

This is a better aftermarket motor mount option:
Black Halo Racing Performance Motor Mounts | Black Halo Racing

It's more expensive, but higher quality, you get to pick your mount material (and later swap just the puck if if you want to try a different one) and you don't have to rely on a vendor that has been repeatedly banned from the community for dishonesty (the one in your link)


If you want OEM, Mazmart is a good option if you are shipping from the US anyway. I don't really know what good local vendors might be over in the UK/Europe to suggest one.

I gather you missed the reference to that vendor being banned for dishonesty ... multiple times. Considering you are shipping overseas, you are rolling the dice on running into problems.

Just wanted to add my few cents... few weeks ago ordered from Scott (rx8performance) few products for a bit more than 900$ and ordered it from Europe, during order process Scott gave me a lot handy answers about products and some advises about turbo, and when I paid him for the order I asked to put lower price on the invoice for shipping so that I won't pay the duty taxes here, he done this and after 2 weeks of waiting I received the products which are fantastic quality, and also haven't payed the taxes, so he saved me some money and overall his service was superb! So I', 100% sure that in future will order from him anything else

Yeah, sometimes he doesn't screw over customers.

He has a laundry list of people he has taken money from and not provided any product in return though. How he treats you on that order is a roll of the dice. Each person has to ask themselves if they really want to take that risk or not.

I personally refuse to do business with someone that has proven themselves to be lacking in moral integrity. It doesn't matter what their pricing or product quality is, they are permanently off my list of vendors. Scott's original problems or not, he repeatedly attempted to re-join the forum under different assumed names to get around his banning, and that is enough for me not to trust him to do the right thing. (Not to mention the rather large amount of money owed to people on this forum that lost thousands to him that he conveniently ignores)
