Hi Everyone,
I have a 2007 Mazda3 s GT 5-door, 5-speed manual with a blown motor. I've been searching for a used motor and found a place that is selling JDM 2.3L engines that were installed in JDM Mazda3's. The shop says a few parts need to be swapped from the U.S. version 2.3L to the JDM 2.3L engine and they claim it's no issue. Wondering if anyone has done this?
I know all Mazda3's are built in Japan, but the engine in question was used in Japan in a JDM Mazda3.
Here is the company that sells them: http://www.autopartsorlando.com/inventory-search/
