Hopefully, in the next month or 2, I'll be swapping in a low mileage JDM 3VZ. What should I replace on the new motor while it's out? -Spark plugs, wires, cap, rotor -All fluids -Valve seals? -???

You should also do water pump and timing belt also and throw an E153 tranny

I'm on borrowed time for the remainder of the life of my camry due to the cost of getting them replaced. __________________ 1993 V6 XLE Camry (196,000 miles) totalled 10-17-08 2006 Pontiac G6 GT (147,000 miles) -License revoked until March 19th
