When do you do your first tune up?

2000, SS Vert...

50k miles on it.

Havent changed anything.....

When should i do sparks? Wires? Coolant? etc etc etc?

I had the rear differential seal fixed for leaking around 30k miles, they had to change the fluid, it's leaking AGIAN

Change the oil when the light comes on....

Havent "recharged" the kn air filter lately...hmm i should do that....

What do u guys think? should i change the sparks/etc?

Spark plugs, fuel filter, PCV valve, trans fluid, and clean that darn air filter.
If the coolant looks OK then let it go till next year, if it's sludgy looking the get a flush and fill.

Do what it says in the manual? :dunno: But yeah do the fuel filter too. Aren't we supposed to change the fuel filter pretty often on these cars?

Fuel filter should be every 30K, as per the manual.
