change the oil every 3,000 (I g every 4k b/c I use Mobil 1 sunthetic).
Timing belt evert 60k, service coolant 30k, plugs/wires 30k, tranny/t-case/rear diff every 60k.
Also, check all your belts and hoses for cracks/peeling/etc.

Being as you both have 95's, I assume you have the 7 bolt motor.
Its notorious for a rather unavoidable problem called crankwalk.
Search the term and you'll learn all about it.

Also check your brake pads, bushings on the suspension (jack the car up and jerk the wheel around a little bit), I'd suggest taking out your axles every30k because they are known to seize into the wheel bearing = new spindle/hub/and wheelbearing, And by take them out I mean just get them loose and if any boots are torn/leaking replace them, also chg your tranny fluid every 60k at least... that's about all I can think of right now. Also make one of these: http://www.vfaq.com/mods/ICtester.html
