I also have an 87 Mr2. Mine has 224,xxx miles and still running strong.
Having the old air filter can cause a lot of problems. So get that changed ASAP.
I bought my MR2 with a bad clutch(couldn't move the car at all). I bought a clutch kit off ebay for $86. Replaced it in 3 days, in my driveway, by myself with a broken collar bone. It's rather straight forward with a lot of room to work with.
For fluids I stick with Amsoil products. Very professional and high quality.
Where are you located Mr2sFTW? Somebody might be close that could help with any problems you are having.
One more thing. NGK are great spark plugs, but I would not bother with iridium($6 each). Just get the v-power plugs($2 each) and change them once a year.
