Exclamation wow, my protege is ****'d, HELP!

recently my motor mount went in my '99 1.6L 5 speed protégé. the motor mount cause me not to be able to access 2 - 4 - R gears.. i replaced the motor mount and it still popped out of 2nd sometimes.. (had to double clutch for it to possibly work) the next day i had it going above 120 km/h and the whole car would shake.. drove for aprox. an hour and then the shaking stopped.. now my fifth gear is gone and i have all others, working decently, but 2 4th and Reverse are sometimes not accessible.. 5th gear, there is nothing there, i dont need a clutch to go into the slot.. possibly the forks for 5th is broke? and now starting from a stop and speeding up, in the front end there is a ticking noise that gets faster as i speed up.. my brakes? im new to mazda's, and ppl around here in the garage's dont know their spark plugs from air filters(get the point? lol) can someone help me please?

sounds like the tranny is just destroyed. might just be the clutch, which could be caught now.

It does sound like you may need a new tranny cause ppl now a days dont waste time rebuilding trannys its probrably cheaper to get a transmission then to have them rebuild it, it might be the snchronizer rings are bent or something. Or might just be the clutch.
