Yes, but the nose is solid mounted to the gearbox, which is then rubber mounted to the chassis, so effectively it is still rubber mounted all round.

Have you had a look at the locostusa site? The MX5 (or Miata as they like to call it) is a very common donor over there, and there's numerous threads/builds/ideas on mounting the diff.
