Mazda, 323 GTX 1992 JDM
So I recently bought my first car, a 1992 mazda familia GTX JDM imported in 2009. It is a great little car that needs a bit of work. Engine is the 1.8 bpt, which needs a new head gasket. Question is does the BP gasket from the 1.8l miata fit and will it work in a turbocharged car? If not I could use a bit of help finding the proper gasket for the car. Thanks in advance!
 
I can't say 100% the head gasket fits, but call me 98% sure. I know the heads on the RWD BP engine and FWD BP engine are the same, and I don't believe the turbo motor has any differences in the head gasket. Also, Miata guys use the factory MLS gasket with 12-15 psi boost, so I don't see it being an issue on the stock turbo.
