Maybe better to try these - at least there is rubber involved!

Speaking from experience, a factory rx8 vibration is absolutely nothing compared to a vehicle with solid mounts. Even polyurethane mounts would create significantly more vibration than factory. I advise you take a ride in a car with poly or solid mounts before buying these...

Trust me, there is huge difference with just under bracing, I cannot imagine how it is with solid mounts. i installed full under bracing on Hoss-05's car and I have been driving it lately and the vibration and noise is insane. I would never install under bracing or solid mounts on my car.

Speedsource used to use solid delrin there and also on the differential mounts, but stopped because the aluminum brackets between the engine mounts and the engine started breaking

just fill the OE mounts per the DIY thread, not solid but it removes a lot of the loosey-goosey rubber band effect from the factory mounts
