You don't need a fuel injector, unless you think you have a bad one.

Air filter, fuel filter, cabin filter, belt, belt tensioner, you can do Snub mount as well, change the oil, and check your valve covers. They may need replacement gaskets.

Good luck!

Since you are in CA i would suggest JHM for all of your maintenance items. ECS has the stuff, but their shipping charges are ridiculous and they have rubbed me the wrong way in the past.

I would also change the ATF and rear differential fluid.

Is it really necessary to do the belt tensioner if the bearings are fine (not squeaking)?

I'm not sure if it is "necessary" but it's one of those preventive maintance items. You need to take the bumper off and place the front end in service position, that's a decent amount of work. So a belt tensioner is another $100
but you won't have to worry about it breaking on you for another 80,000 +

So in my book, it is not Necessary, but mandatory :)

Belts wear out and it's very hard to tell short of obvious cracking and noise. Just replace it.

its not just ECS it's everywhere Summit racing, Jegs, Cheaper than dirt, it's because of the cost of fuel.

I shit USPS ALOT. but i dont think any of those websites use usps, because USPS has kept their low prices, whereas UPS and Fedex increased prices in shipping

No, it's because it's a profit center for these companies ... they do not charge actual shipping costs.

Or just open your own UPS/FedEx account and tell the company you want it billed to your account **** you'll ALWAYS pay the true charges then.
