i know the 1991-1994 Mazda Protege DX ---motor will swap but will the trans swap with it
G15M-R trans can i still bolt up a bp to it this is the motor it has on it RF-MDT
or would a F5M-R trans work better the the stock one or is it a f series as well?
found it on here

No, the DX Proteges of that body style all have an F series gearbox. Only the twin cam LX Protege's have a G series.
The G15M-R is only for the Mazda 3's and there is no interchangeable parts with the BP's, KL's, or B6 trans.
BTW, the heading "transmissions", should be changed to "transaxles".
...unless we are talking about rear wheel drive cars.
it may be possible i want an f not a g.. look at gas i dont want to git up and go .. i want gas mileage at higher speeds.. higher speed lower rpm better gas mileage on high way.. and might i add higher top end.

You should have started a new thread.
Any K series gearbox will fit. (and Mazda V6 in this generation)

@ king62 - a G5M-R or G25M-R would bolt up to any K series, ive also heard rumors of the 4 banger manual trans (F25M-R and F5M-R) bolting to the K's? Seriously? Is this even remotely physically possible?

You're in the wrong forum. Search the V6 Technical forum and if you don't find the answer (and you should because it's been covered many thousands of times) ask your question again there.
