Really is no part list. As you do your swap you will find things missing or thing that dnt fit. I bought a hole clip and still had problems with my swap took way longer then most swaps.

I'll be nice... You will wanna make sure u have these things as some u will need to buy and some that may not come with ur "swap"

S13 SR radiator and hoses possibly t-stat
Make sure the clutch fan is good and you will want to get a stock fan shroud
Intake piping
You said ur going fmic so you will need to make sure the piping works
Spark plugs
Power steering lines that will work (it's been a while so I don't remember if KADE ones work, I know SOHC ones don't work)
Motor mounts and tranny mount (if ur swap doesnt have one)
Wiring harness
You may need to replace clutch, sensors, plugs, belts, gaskets, etc
Downpipe
Fluids (obviously)

I dunno it's late, I'm sure I'm missing things. Anyone else care to add to the list?

FMIC == Battery issues that the OP may not be thinking about. OP, you'll have to either do a trunk mount battery or a smaller battery that will sit sideways. I saw the Optima Drycells for Miata that everyone recommends for about $110 shipped on Amazon.
Also, 2 things not to forget on the turbo, 1) the anti backoff plate for the Turbo nuts (wasn't on my car when I got it, required about 12 hours work to fix) 2) the compressor inlet gasket (I couldn't find it on any exploded views, if it's not in a complete turbo gasket kit, check my "turbo bogging" thread for an OEM part #).
Also, I'm not a fan of the spring reinforced rubber intake. There's a guy on ebay selling cast aluminium inlets with proper vacuum/ return connections, silicon couplers and K&N filter for $125. If you already have a cone filter, he'll work with you. I want to say he sold me the kit, sans filter for $85 shipped (it may have been $85+shipping).

Finally, plugs== NGK BKR7EIX gapped to .028, and you'll need a 255 l/h fuel pump.

Oh and one more thing I highly recommend that you replace a lot of the gaskets inside the engine it's a 20 year old engine so you can't assume that it's gonna be good to go, I would say rebuild it, but I don't know if you have experience with that sort of thing, if you don't and also have the money to pay someone else to do it, I would recommend it as it'll give u some peace of mind and also be better if you plan on adding power
