    Oil $20-40
    Trans Fluid $30-40
    Diff oil $15-25 for 2 litres
    Plugs $4-5 each
    Leads $40-60
    Air filter 10-20
    Oil Filter 5-10
    Fuel Filter 10-20
    If your gonna service the auto youll need a trans service kit $15-25
    Also check Coolant Brake fluid hoses etc etc
    These are average prices repco sells em for but price will change depending on where you go and brands

    A mech will almost charge double the price of parts. Labour would probably be $250 to do all that you have listed.

    You'd probably want a garage to do the tranny oil wouldn't ya? Bit hard to get all the old oil out of the torque converter without the right gear
