So, I've been dealing with sloppy shifting for a long time now and I decided to get new motor mounts. So, I ordered the mazdaspeed mounts from Emilio and waited patiently for them to arrive. Last night I went to install them and pulled the old ones out and lo and behold, one of them is broken. That would explain the sloppy shifting. 2 hours later, the new ones were in and WOW. I can actually predict where 3rd and 5th gears are going to be now! Also, my clutch shudder is pretty much eliminated.
Here's the old ones.

I've got MMR motor mounts on my '90 and it's amazing how much of a difference it made. Shifts much better and they completely eliminated wheelhop. Probably wouldn't recommend them for a daily driver though.

Mazda comps here and that's pretty much how my mounts looked when I replaced them.
