This is not true, the pop-out is only common on early MK1s (85, 86 and some 87) with the early tramsmission and it's caused by worn output shaft bearings and has nothing to do with the engine mounts. If that was true all MR2s would have the same problem with the transmission including the SC and MK2s and they do not.
