3) coolant neck was so brittle that it cracked when I took the hose off. replaced with an aftermarket metal one
4) brake calipers needed a rebuild/replacement due to worn seals and pistons sticking
You can still get all parts pretty easily, though used engines are getting harder to come by and much more expensive as a result.

Good, it doesn't sound like anything unusual fails with this car from the research I've done. I mean... it is Toyota after all (for the most part). Just was a little concerned with the mileage. But, if it was taken care of properly.. should be good. At least I am hoping!
