I have no idea what I'm doing!

Brand new MSM clutch from Rosenthal is $314.66.
Bet you could find it a bit cheaper if you shop around, or if you have access to Mazda Motorsports program.
Part #s:
BP1216410 - pressure plate
BP1216460 - disc
Alternatively, vteckiller2000 will be pulling the clutch out of our old MSM soon. It's got about 30k on it, max. I bet he'd give it to you for cheap.

Small progress. Last pieces needed before install are all the hoses/fittings for oil etc. and my clutch still. My DD broke down so I believe that has zapped my funds for both of those. I guess i'm back in waiting mode.
Spent part of Sunday refinishing my manifold and took a closer look at all my parts.
Used por15 Manifold paint. Says it is good up to 1500F. We will see. I stripped it down taking off any loose rust, used por15 marine clean then metal prep. The metal prep stuff is great, it changes rust, from being rust.
My beautiful downpipe. I also have some exhaust paint coming I plan on using on this thing. I didn't make it. It came as part of a packaged deal. I will use it for a season or so, until I can afford nicer.

My exhaust
Turbo. It is a Chinese version of a gt28. It is also not the pretties, but I don't plan on refinishing it. I hope to replace it and the dp as soon as possible.
And my gauges

Thats the idea. Use it for now, then eventually upgrade the turbo (more efficient and name brand), dp, and exhaust all in 1 fell swoop. All I care about at this point is getting the car boooooooosted. Which will now be 2015 .

QUESTION: Is there anyway to tell if my '95 has the pre-tapped oil feed without taking off parts to see down there? I tried randomly looking yesterday but since I was in work clothes I couldn't dig too much and between the heatshilds and other stuff, I couldn't tell. Do we happen to know a vin range? Mine is an obd1.

Yup.
When i put my 95 block in i had it. But while doing research i found a lot of misinformation. Some say all 95's had it and some say only half or so of them had it..

Well, to continue my progress of having no idea what i'm doing, I can't figure out what size hoses I have for my oil feed and drain.
For my oil feed, I need to add a 90° end fitting to -4 AN. BUT, I can't figure out my the size of the feed line. I have never messed with hoses, fittings etc so I have no clue about sizing and eyeballing what is what. I know after the first time of holding each one in my hand I would never have another issue, but I don't have access to any other than my unknown lines.
Here is the feed line.
Then for my drain line, I'm not certain if it is -8 or -10. I need to purchase a drain fitting and don't know if I need an adapter or can just plug right on.
edit: will get pictures this evening with measuring tape.
