Time for a Tune-up

[ichbindasgehirn]

I figured my money would be best spent getting a tuneup for those that helped me decide on my coilovers. What parts do you guys recommend me changing when I get this tune up done. I know I should get a Water Pump and Timing belt. Is there any other things I should get? And should I just stick with mostly OEM parts or upgrade some.

How many miles are on the car?

I'd do the oil pump along with the timing belt and water pump. Check the alternator belt too while you're at it.

Check the spark plugs and coil packs too.

Thanks for adding bro...

Check the tranny fluid too. It might be nasty... As well as your coolant.

Why should I get OEM NGKs instead of any other kind?

i have been told to stick with the factory plugs because the engine will run the best with them.your autoparts store might carry the stock ones.

Because I found NGK G-Power, for like a dollar more are they okay to use?

[ichbindasgehirn]

you dont see the oe spark plugs?i guess you could go with those if you cant get the oe ones.

I found the OEM But the G-Power ones give better MPG but I can go with OEM That's no problem.

Has anyone found a way to get a cone filter to fit onto our MAFs?
