I plan on doing a good tune up soon and I need to know what else to buy. So far I have on my list...
Spark Plugs and Wires...I heard oem was the best to go with or should I go with them or other ones???
Distrubitor cap and rotor
Kuhmo Escta tires
Slotted Rottors and Pads
Top off all Fluids
Air Filter...thinking about getting a pop charger
Is there anything else I should do? I wanna do this really good to get my car running as best it can. I plan on getting the JGY t25 kit this summer so I want my car to be ready for it. Any help is greatly appericated. thanks

check belts... definatly go with oem plug wires and NGK platinum tip plugs... oh yea... oem rotors and brake pads too... I just did my tuneup... aftermarket pads and rotors were shot after about 3 months... the pads don't dissipate the heat like the oem ones... oem is more expensive, but for a reason when it comes to brakes... just my 2 cents...

You're thinking of the fuel pump. The filter is just a filter. :)

check your motor mounts... if you are going to be going turbo, then it would probably be a good idea to get prothane mounts, or nismo,or jwt.
