engine trouble

last night i was driving my car and about 60 miles from my house the engine fucked up. it was real bad it would bearly run. i hadn't gotten on it or anything. i got it to a mazda dealer. they did some tests on it this morning and my second rotor has no compression. i need a new enging. i was wondering if anybody knew where i could get like a new gasket/seal kit to hook everything back up. or if you have ever heard of the kit for it

you wanna fix the seals on the rotor to get it running again? if so i dont think you will be able to do it. the seals are the inner most seals and would mean taking the whole engine apart to do so. but i have seen kits for 1400 but most just by a new core.

Those are just regular rubber gaskets. They are available at your local Mazda dealer or you can try www.mazdatrix.com for some oem stuff.
