Default 90,000 miles

Well, the time is fast approaching for my cars 90K maintenance. My car is a stock 5-speed 00 GS-R. I know what the books say that I need to replace and check when the magic number clicks over. However, I was wondering what others recommend that I replace. Timing belt, spark plugs and wires aside.

Also, does anyone know what changing out the Transaxel Fluid entails? Do I just drain the fluid that is in there now and refill? or is there a filter in there that I need to replace as well? I have the Haynes book and it doesn't really have a good explaination.

if you really want to go overboard, you could do your thermostat as a preventative thing...
