First off, read the FAQ on the main page. That will answer many questions you may have.
Second, yes probably about 99% of the parts will be the same. Your motor code is the 4g63, it's the same as what's in the turbo eclipse, so any part you find for that motor works with your car.
The type of oil you use is your decision. Oil is oil. Just stick with something that you like. I personally use the Mobil 5,000 miles 5w30, but many people don't like Mobil oil because it cleans your engine too well, and causes lifter tick in some people's cars. I don't have this problem, so it works well for me. Get a decent oil filter, many use K&N but they are expensive. I use Purolator Pure1.
