Re: engine swap... what should i get???

i recently saw in a web page this engine: 1.8 BPD, and it says it comes from mazda family GT-R, and of course the BPT, but for this last one, does not say what family it comes from... maybe GT-r?? i'm confused... could anyone explain this to me?

Re: installing a deck

there is no factory amp in the mx-3... there is a thick round black wire on the left corner. that is the antenna... the thing you gotta do is find the wire that gave power to the old stereo,(try hooking a small bulb into the holes of the old harness, it will light when you find power) so you'll know...
