dude.. so were clear.. physics IS physics..a solid mount is a solid mount.. regardless of the application. 1-2 harmonics, torque all the fun stuff,
But I see your a not concerned with that, your concerend with what? that people don't dare say something negative on here, everyone just accepts crap or possible crap with complaince ?? gasp heaven forbid someone actually questions a product!.. your delicate sensabilities are abused.. someone get this man a girly drink and a FLARE mag.

FUNNIEST THREAD EVER!
you guys are morons
Everyone laughed at me when I said I was using hunks of 2x4 and bolts for my motor mount pucks, but you know what - I've yet to find something that works better. My car don't vibrate, now that I'm not using crappy oil, too.
as far as standing up to big power, well, we'll see... haven't given me trouble yet though
(motormaster oil + wankel = vibration!)

No 2x4's are bad you showed them to us, you said they never cracked.... they were in 2 pieces, and you weren't allowed to auto-x because of them.

Why Is Nismo Convert86 PMing me asking me to delete this thread? He asked that I not PM him back but rather I delete It Instead. So I ask here...
You are In the hot spot AGAIN I see. Can you not accept honest critisism to a product you are marketing without the Moderators approval ie. paying-for-avertising? The first thing you do Is you get all defensive and than talk about a law-suit that you two have (or had). Instead to provide testimony that works (and stick to It) you Instead lash out with name calling. How old are you man?
Take a look at exactly what Is being posted In this thread and you will see that you are:
1. selling (or attempting to do so) a product that was not cleared
2. how you don't know f*** all about the dynamics and Implications of using solid Engine Mounts, let alone to be capable of supporting your argument when one questions points on It
3. how you continue to be depreciative of this Forum.
Deleting this thread Is not going to be used as a scapegoat here.

OK Tony,
I can accept honest critisism, and have so on many occasions. but say what you will.
I simply asked, if any one wanted something, because I have the means todo so, kinda like if I had 50 sets of rotors for sale, it's not a group buy, it's just asking if anyone is, basically a feeler post.
I know the possible reprocussions of of using solid mounts I have used them for 2 YEARS in a daily driven car, and I love them. If people want to use/buy them they do so on their own accord.
How do you think most companies start? OUT OF A GARAGE.

Yeah thats a pretty decent price too, the aluminum is just the next step up 100% stiffer then stock! I think that price is with the the mazdaspeed racing discount and per side no? but none the less they are a great product. I'm just simply trying to offer, alturnatives to prople that might want something more responsive, and greater feel.

I figure I might as well hijack this thread since it seems it has already degenerated...
I have a few questions for doridori. I was told that this is your company/shop's website: http://www.battleauto.com
It states that you can provide 4 rotor engine build services. What kind of performance can be expected from these engines? What about price and durability? What applications could these engines be used with(drag racing? road racing? even street??) What porting configurations are they available in? Are the eccentric shafts multi-piece like mazda designs? Do you machine them yourself? What type of engine management do you use with these engines?
Sorry about all the questions, but there aren't many of these amazing engines around let alone someone building them right here in our own backyard.
If this is in fact not your company's website, I am sorry and disregard my questions...

Please discuss it here as many of us would like to hear the answers. Or if you feel more comfortable maybe you you can start another thread answering Nik's questions.

the 4 rotor was for aircraft use, it's never been configured or priced out for road use.. I would have to discuss the layout with anyone interested. ( costing is not for the faint of heart. ) that's why I reccomended to take it off the boards.
I will be doing a 3 rotor in the next few months for a customer that will share allot of elements with the said 4 rotor if your interested..

Doridori, below is a quote from another thread you wrote in:
Maybe you should stop attacking other peoples products and worry about how you present your own. Having looked at your website there doesn't appear to be anything of substance on it other than lofty claims.
You expect everyone else to be ready to debate their products on your demand in public but feel your conversations about your own work should be in private. I think the word for that is hypocrit.
I spent $17,000 at a shop on my last FC (Paint, motorwork etc). My point being that I am not afraid to spend money. But I can tell you conclusively that you will never see a dime of my hard earned cash simply because of the way you conduct yourself on this forum. I am not giving any shop my cash at the moment as I am doing everything myself but I doubt I will have time to do that in the near future. I have promised myself a 20b FD in the future, which I will commission from a shop. Unfortunately you have lost my future business and probably potential work from others too. I hope you get my point and refrain from attacking others from now on.

care to point out WHERE on your website this 'extensive test' information is, seems you won't provide the actual information so I'll take you up on your suggestion and do the reverse eng. myself.. thanks.

Um.. am I suppose to care about this? 1 aircraft customer is worth 5-8 car customers.. That's not an exaggeration.. As well, I have allot car based customers already, some of which you know. For some reason they keep coming back to me, I guess they don't base thier choice of shops on things like thier ' questionable conduct ' online as you see it, or how much they bruise your delicate sensabilities..
Do, you really think that I will stop asking questions when I have them because you say it bothers you?? wow you've really got a high opinion of yourself, one I don't share obviously. You don't want to come to me fine, I couldn't care less, esp. if that customer requires me to censor my thoughts and play by the rules HE chooses to set for me in a public venue..
Allot of customer do not want the products made for them shown.. for whatever reason.. So I use what I have at hand and as stated, it's a basic page at the moment.. my time is spent elsewhere doing other stuff, I work on it when I can. But I think it's great just the way it is.. I seems to filter out the goons from the real customers It's funny, the guys with aircraft who spend probably what YOU make a year on engine/firewall forward don't have an issue with the site..?? odd that .

Well you seem to care about it when I made a post about my mounts then, you critisize EVERYTHING, because you think that you have a far superior product, products that I don't think any of us have seen, or seen other posts about.
WOW, You have no idea do you, making statements like that, saying people that make less money then your customers..... LOL Lawyers Spirit IS a lawyer, last time I checked Lawyers in the Toronto area made a crap load, Not to mention that in a few years I'll be making 100k a year pretty easily with all the overtime I'll be putting in, don't make assumptions on peoples money situations you make yourself look even more rediculous.
If you are so gung ho about aircraft then do that, stop raising **** in a fairly tight knit community. I'm sure they have aircraft forums that you can rant and rave about, maybe give that a try? Just a thought.

nismo: they aren't in two pieces? never have been. I think I showed you the protype one, which is right infronto fme, not in two pieces.
I've never been not allowed to compete at an autocross, where'd you hear that?
WOSCA had a minor issue with them but nothing that prevented me from competing.
BDC uses them in a 600HP car without an issue - and they pass tech fine at the dragstrip
my point still stands.
I think compubob was making some UHMW plastic motor mounts, not sure what ever happened to that but you might want to ask him - I think it was killed from lack of interest.
