Buying a '98 with 90K miles. I have no detailed history on the car. I want to do a major tune on it. I came up with the following short list of parts to replace, but I'd appreciate a heads up on anything else or anything Maxima specific I should order or anything I should be thinking of doing that isn't below.

Right now I am ordering plugs, air filter, fuel filter, oil filter/change, belts. I plan on going through the "clean the TB and all these valves" thread and cleaning every thing listed. I'm going to run a bottle of Techron FS cleaner through the tank.

Anything else I should be buying or doing to bring it up to spec?

that's a good start

maybe also inspect/change out the vacuum hoses and also check the lower rad. support for rust.

Change the coolant and trans fluid.

Drive it.

I,too, recently bought a 98 with low miles (80k). Even though the car was a one owner car, clean car fax, nissan dealer serviced, and aftermarket rust proofed, the lower control arms were rusted. The end link bushings were also dry rotted and needed replacing. Just make sure you inspect the steering and suspension components for safe operation.
