not neccessarily change the brakes, but give them a good inspection. if the pedal is firm and no pulsation, the rotors are still in tact probably, and also see the thickness of the pads. Just inspect the car bumper to bumper and see what strikes you. If the car has been well kept you won't find much

On my 96 I ran MSD Blaster Coil Packs, MSD Superconductor Wires & Motocraft Platinum Plugs when I did my tune up a year ago. Runs like a champ!
