The basic tool list above (I carry a regular old Canadian Tire 100piece toolkit with metric open-end wrenches, sockets, wratchet, magnetic screwdriver, air pressure tester, voltage tester, x-acto knife, pliers etc... in one neat little case)

plus a jackstand and I make sure I oil my stock jack once in a while so that if I need to do anything serious, I have a jack and a jackstand in the car, along with most of the tools I use on the car. I've done most of the work on my car with that simple 100 piece toolkit, and one 14mm offset boxwrench for the stupid brake caliper mounting bolts. And ever since the Rx7 show this summer I carry a few extra bolts. One of the guys at the show coming in fromi Toronto 5 hours away lost a caliper mounting bolt on the 416 and had a bitch of a time finding a proper replacement.

I try to keep fluids out of the car... but a small 1L of antifreeze is a must.

And when I get around to it I'm going to keep an extra set of drivebelts in the car, with some sparkplugs and plugwires. You never know when you'll need those. Oh, and I keep a length of thick-ish stereo wiring. You'd be amazed how useful that stuff can be when it comes to bypassing shorts and other electrical probs until you get home.
