Check the I4 FAQ. Its not impossible or anything like that but it takes MANY parts. It is usually cheaper to get one with a V6 to start with.

Re: Need swaping Info.
Yeah I think that you would be better off just getting the GS cause swapping the 2.5 into the 4cyl it a VERY expensive way to go, and time consuming
Re: Need swaping Info.
Thanks for the advice people, I will look into it! I have spoken to many others, some say the transmission and 1.6L from 323 are enterchangebul and others say the only thing for me are 1992 or 1993 Mx-3 parts. Could someone clear up this issue. I Need A manuel transmission what can I use. oh yea and 5spd_GS what do you think I am doing, is this not searching.
