If i were you, later on after you've enjoyed your car and fixed any issues with mounts I would take the car apart and take precise measurements of said mounts and make a jig to recreate the mounts exactly as the ones in your car.
The reason is to not rely on very unreliable hinson and actually get these mounts to the market.
Unless you signed a non-disclosure agreement, that would have been a mistake.

Did you guys do a single sided exhaust? I don't see anything in that last pic. Well against all odds you guys got it done congratulations. I hope your budget did not reflect the time frame.

That RX8 is effing sick!!! I love the rotary engine and its tons of fun but I also own a 78 camaro with a 383 stroker in it pushing 500hp so I appreciate the chevy V8's and the power they put to the ground... You combine that power with the handling and stability and lightweight of the RX8 and you got one hell of a ride.
Both my camaro and RX8 are equally fun to drive for the opposite reasons, I can't imagine how much fun it would be to drive with both reasons combined.

Ahhhhh yeah!
Have you guys put on the cat back yet? Sounds crazy loud
Also I don't think you mentioned it, but is the stock radiator being used?

Just theorizing, what lights are on. Also did you have to mod or wire the eps any?

Rx8 has several different computers. The whole thing was intricate lol. We don't want to just turn the light off. Weare trying to make it operational. The only lights that will stay on are vdc and check engine. Check engine is canbus and is pretty much not going to turn off.
Fuel wise we upgraded the pump and ran -6 feed and return. We used a factory chevy filter amd regulator.
