ok, i dont mean to sound like a dick.... but these are some simple questions that you have been asking (this and some others), read the faq at the top of the forum, do some searches on the forum and some on google and you will find anything that you want to know...

and from your bio you say "street racing".... first step in taking care of your car is not doing that

nicely put vector but ill give him a little help....change the frickin oil every 2500 miles or less, change the air filter i think atleast once a year, change plugs every 10,000 miles, flush the coolant system once a year(usually before summer) that should keep her running for a long time to come

Oil is the most important. Change it often. It's a pain.
These engine also eat spark plugs... while it won't specifically be bad for the engine to run on worn plugs, it makes the engine run like ***. Not nice playboy bunny *** either, but old wrinkly ***.
