best plug/wire would be OEM.

as for oil, lots of people love mobil1 every 3k miles.... but its really up to you and how much you want to spend.

Best plugs are NGK BKR6. for wires either OEM or NGK. Getting bigger "performance" wires won't do anything at all. I got NGK 5mm wires (oem replacement) because they were blue tongue.gif

as for oil, I suppose Mobil 1 is what toyota recommends. I use Mobil 1, though I was using it before I even knew it was recommended, I chose it because it was the cheapest synthetic I saw in the particular store I was in (which didn't have a big selection btw) but it's really personal preference

I bought my celica 8 years ago, and I've tried everything in it from synthetics to regular oil, etc. I've personally put over 175,000 miles on it, and since it had 100,000 on it when I bought it, I'm over 275,000 on the clock now. I think what matters most is the frequency of the oil change and making sure it's never low, not the oil/filter type. I know others will disagree, but for most of my car's life I've used cheap Fram filters, and whatever high mileage oil is on sale at Autozone. I change it every 3k, and I don't run it too hard, so it keeps on running for me.
