If you can't find a mount for your car, you can always fill your old one with urethane. I did it to my MR2 mount and it stiffens things up quite a bit, great for someone who want to try things out.
No "stance", no "hellaflush", none of that bullshit. Nothing but no grip on full boost.

Plus Plastics in east tamaki. $30-40 per mount to be refilled with Urethane witht he old mount burnt out.
Cheaper if you only want to leave the stock rubber in there and fill over it.

Hate to break it to you Bazda but their prices must have gone up.. last quote I had a month or two back was $60 each for small fwd mounts.

I ended up buying the urethane and doing it myself, $90 kit ended up doing 6 mounts with some to spare. Some I removed all of the rubber and poured it completely from urethane, some I left the stock rubber intact and filled in around it. Both worked very well. I used 80a shore rated stuff, if you leave the rubber intact they are very streetable.

4 mounts to Plus Plastics, get them back on 23rd, around 60 each but they had to burn the old rubber out as I was a bit pushed for time so will clean out the next set for a bit cheaper.
and still lots cheaper than buying rubber replacements
