How many miles?
Oil - any 5w30. I like Pennzoil ultra or platinum, but conventional works fine.
Filter - Pureone PL14612 is specified, but PL14610 is an upsized option that I use.
Air filter - OEM or any from rock auto
Brake fluid - DOT 4.
Spark plugs shouldn't need to be changed unless you have insane amounts of mileage.

All of the maintenance activities and mileage/time are in the manual. Do you need those quoted?

By the way, it is DOT 3 fluid for brakes. I just noticed this while getting the extra bottle to return....
