I'm going to keep this quick and to the point.
I replaced my motor mounts with Hardpark Inc's Derlin mounts 1,000 miles ago. I used all OEM torque specs when installing.



I did one drift event and a bit of spirited driving. I did a drift event this past saturday and on my 5th or so run I spun out and all I see is my purple mount skipping along the course. Up on inspection Not only was one mount broken but both. When I got them all off I noticed some rust on broken ends meaning one had been broken for quite some time.

Overall, I'm not super thrilled that the hardware broke with just that many miles on them. The bushings themselves were not damaged though.

I recommend if you do instal these to upgrade the hardware.

Sorry this happened to you, but this is not the first case by a long shot.

People had issues since install with these mounts.

That hardpark guy is a real asshole. Anyone who has these should immediately replace the hardware. It was inadequate at install.
Yea I changed them at the track to grade 8 bolts. Im ditching these as soon as I can get some Mazdaspeed ones. Out of all the things one could break drifting their car the LAST thing id think was my motor mounts. :cry:
