all the gaskets and seals, spark plugs, possibly turbo(if yours is fucked or u want to replace it) probaly some other things but can't think of them right now.

i just did a turbo upgrade so thats good but ive been having issues with that but thats in my other threads..also just replaced plugs and wires two days ago
Apexi: As many of the coolant hoses as you can replace while the head's off.
Cheap insurance for the future they cost a bit from Toyota but are a LOT cheaper than another rebuild as our motors are intolerant of cooling failures.
