Maintenance at 150k

Hello all,
My camry ticked over 150,000 miles the other month and besides for being super proud of my ride I was wondering if this was a good time to do some work to it, so it keeps going for another 150k.
My intial thought was duh timing belt. So I think Ill have that done. Its been four years and at least 70k since it was done the last time.

Other thoughts? Brake pump, ABS? Power steering?
I just put in a new alt.
Rebuild would be nice, but I dont have the skills nor the time.

Cheers
Anshu

well as most would recomend, timing belt and water pump. unless other things are broken or worn, fix them when they give u problems.

No, rebuild you're crazy, not until it dies. Spark plug wires, and plugs themselves, tranny fluid/diff, brake pads if not recently done, brake fluid, brake lines if their bad, mine died at 112000, valve cover gasket, coolant, possibly a flush of cooling system and engine with diesel or seafoam, clean the TB with some STP, grease the suspension where it needs it. Run a few bottles of fuel injector cleaner through the gas. Wax it for 4 hours

Also you need a TRD RSB, a Turbonetics T3/T04, and all sorts of other goodies.
