I didn't read the whole thread, just this first post. I would recommend doing transmission and differential. I bought my car at 12000 miles, and changed fluids a few thousand after that. Both my transmission and differential were very dark and had a lot of sediment, my drain plugs were caked in metal shavings. That's why I recommend it, just in case. Only costs maybe 40$ in fluids. Well worth the piece of mind IMO. I use Amsoil products. Visit a store ir call them and they will tell you what you need. All the big names are fine, I'd just avoid the cheap Wal-Mart stuff and the overpriced Japanese stuff(quality is fine just over priced unless you are a dedicated track guy)
