How to change Oil

Hey Guys,
I was doing a search on oil changes but found nothing. I really havent looked underneath the bottom of my car. So I was wondering if anyone has a diagram of where the oil drain plug is and second, what is the torque specs for tightening it back up? (I usually just do it until its a little tighter than snug).
Also, what oil and filter do you guys use? I heard there is HP oil filter, and theres this other redline oil? Should I just stick with Mazda OEM stuff?

Thanks
