Default 07 turbo mazda swap in 04 mazda hatch

alright so heres the deal i fucked up and sucked up a bunch of water into my 04 mazda motor and now i need a new one, now im one of those lucky people who got a check from my insurance company but they gave me 6000 so i was wanting to know if its possible to take a brand new turbo mazda engine and put it into my 5 speed 04 mazda hatch and what i would have to do to get it to fit and hook up right

Take the $6k and buy a used motor and have it put in the car. You probably won't have much left over, but if you do, go out and buy something nice.

6k will not cover it, talk about an assload of money and work.

LOGIC? You seriously want to invoke logic in a conversation about fake hijackings, missiles hitting the pentagon, and bombs planted throughout the world trade center? I thought it was a given that logic was checked at the door when entering one of these threads.

I said "FC" not FD, lol.

Plus, you'll never have to worry about hydrolock again. But if you're the type that takes your car to the dealer for oil changes, a rotary is NOT for you. lol
