1Revvin7 12-05-2002 07:03 PM

another pic of it

1Revvin7 12-05-2002 07:04 PM

pix of the tranny and do you see the mounting postion? its right about the jack, thats where i think im missing something.

1Revvin7 12-05-2002 07:05 PM

another pic but this one is shitty, notice the tranny has a flat mounting spot yet the tranny mount is shaped in a V WTF????

rotarychainsaw 12-05-2002 09:05 PM

Those pics are very artistic. :bigthumg: Maybe a pic from farther away, or hold the mount up to were u think it is supposed to attach to and take a pic.

You are missing a big rubber biatch, goes between that funky piece of metal, you need a new transmission mount, they are like 25 at the dealer and worth replacing anyhow.

DAMN THXS PHIN!!!!!!!!!! I ******* knew it, i knew i was missing a piece, man i just paid $50 for this damn thing, cuz it has supposably competion tranny mounts on it! i knew it !!!!YES **** i can get the part now.

Scott 89t2 12-05-2002 09:30 PM

the comp tranny mounts are only $10 each LOL https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png

1Revvin7 12-07-2002 07:09 PM

Well i check mazdatrix and they have the mount listed, the actuall tranny mounts and the Y-section, I already have all these hmmmm ****? they are all like $100 total too.

1Revvin7 12-08-2002 12:33 AM

ok i put the mount in, but the tranny has no way to bolt to the mount, it just sits on it. I know its not supposed to do that. Could someone look under their friggin car and tell me how it bolts to the mount, ie 1 bolt 2 bolts center etc.

1Revvin7 12-08-2002 10:20 AM

ok so maybe this is either an n/a mount, an s5 mount, maybe my tranny is an s5/ or vice versa. How can I tell what series my tranny is?

The metal part with the big stud is different for 87-88 and 89-91 TII transmissions. They're not really interchangeable. The 2 rubber mounts bolt to that part, and then they bolt onto the crossmember.

1Revvin7 12-08-2002 03:24 PM

see this ****?

1Revvin7 12-08-2002 03:25 PM

So what part do i need to buy? god this is gay.

13BAce 12-08-2002 05:00 PM

There should be a place on the transmission for the metal piece with the big stud to bolt onto. You need that metal piece and the proper crossmember, along with new rubber mounts if those are worn out.

1Revvin7 12-08-2002 05:51 PM

Thats what i kept asking people if i was missing a piece on my tranny, ok thxs ace, now i just gotta find somewhere to get one. Mazdatrix does not have it. Guess i will run to the dealer tommorrow. Those are competition mounts and have only been used slightly. What weird about this mount is the part that is supposed to screw into the tranny is welded, that big bolt is welded on the top( as you can see in the very first pic). Thxs for all the help.

tight pics, nice camera

Scott 89t2 12-09-2002 02:21 AM

I guess I'll reply here for the others that don't read the "other forum" https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png



looks like an S5 mount. same as mine. but the bottom of the tranny looks diff.

my best guess is it's an S5 mount, and S4 tranny. and they must be different. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/dunno.gif



here's mine

phinsup 12-09-2002 02:30 AM

it's an s4 tranny and an s5 mount I can tell you that much.

1Revvin7 12-09-2002 06:56 AM

yup!!!thxs again scott! damn its finally solved!

phinsup 12-09-2002 03:13 PM

No prob, sorry it took me so long, it's just that i have seen so many of both lately I couldn't remember which was which LOL, but after tossing the tranny in mine yesterday it was obvious.



You gotta get an s4 tranny mount somewhere.
