I live in Prince George B.C and was wondering if any one can help me out?? I have several questions! 1. Is there any NEW engine that can be swapped into MX-3 I mean engines out of Mazda 3 and 6's will go into a 1994 MX-3 4 cyl model if so will the tranny and drive train work too? 2 I've seen projector headlights in MX-3's from Honda Civics is that true and what year Civic headlights do i need? Are they easy to install? 3 I need a transmission for my MX-3 1994 4 cyl 5 speed and a timing chain/ belt is there anybody near by in B.C or Alberta that can hook me up? Contact me @ bmanj@hotmail.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; if you can answer any of these question. THANX!!!!!

just for future ref... one topic works just as good as 2. Less clutter the better.

1. No
2. There are projectors made specifically for the mx-3 now which are better. You will find them on ebay, as well info about them in the forums.. appearance and electrical
3. I would suggest picking up a transmission from a junk yard.. or find a cheap mx-3 and rip it out. Timing belt you can order from any mechanic or mazda.. probably canadian tire or napa etc.
