Replace minor tune up parts....distributor cap and rotor, plug wires, plugs, fuel filter.* Also replace major maintenance things like the timing belt and water pump, while the motor is out of the car...it's a pain to do it while the motor is in the car.* If you want a better clutch/flywheel, again do it while the motor is out of the car.

If you plan on doing it yourself, I hope you are somewhat experienced in mechanic work.* You'll probably need a friend to help you do the work....2 people are better than 1.

You also forgot something in that list! The tensioner for your timing belt, the guy who changed my belt forgot to do it and my timing reversed 2 weeks later @ $1100 damage.. Just a heads up.
