I was thinking of bringing the following:
- S/C and automatic fit kit (durrr)
- Synthetic oil (since I'm due fro an oil change too, royoal purple 10w40)
- Synthetic auto transmission fluid (was thinking of Royal Purple - anyone got comments on that?)
- TRD oil filter
- power steering flush
Since I'm there and getting the S/C installed and I hit my 30k miles is there anything else I should tell them to check/do?
Thanx,
FI sis C

You can always store your current brakes if they still have life left in em incase something happens to your new StopTechs.
That reminds, me, I have to get the stainless steel lines and then I can put mine on.

your brakes can wait. its not like they will help you stop any better in the snow.
i put in stoptech stage 1 on my car over the summer. axxis pads squeal when lightly pressed but stops on a dime when you need it to. they give of a lot of brake dust too.

Well every 30K you should flush ur power steering fluid
Oil, syn. is deff the way to go. your dealer will more than likely have mobile 1 in stock, but if u want them to use royal purple, bring it.
syn. tranny fluid isnt really needed, and it will be expensive to do a tranny flush. u really dont need a tranny flush till around 50-60k
trd oil filter... again, not really needed, you can use the standard toyota filter if you wish
as for people telling you to check your brakes... for what? if they are still grabbing the same, and there is no stop/go feeling when brakes, and you dont hear any grinding or squealing, your fine
