High idle can be all sorts of things, inlcuding probably the most common, a vacuum leak. For starters, post a picture of your vacuum line set up so we can verify thats all in order. Also, the FITV (your b16a may or amy not have one, located beneath the throttle body) can fall out of adjusment which can also cause idle issues.

Shes cute nick. 
Since we are on the subject, I have some mushy brakes. The feeling is similar to having too small a master cylinder, but I know thats not the case, as it is 15/16 with stock brakes. It has stock brakes and newly bled fluid. The only thing I can think of is that the booster is on the way out.

those wheels looks really good on the car for some reason might be because of the concave-ness of them a little

There are speed bleeders though, thought about giving them a try but not sure if they are safe haha.

They sell those power bleeders...some guys use them with success. I dunno. I need to figure something out. I always have to call up skinny chicks to come over and help since the few buddies I have in this town are too fat to fit in my seat.
I use a vacuum set up. 1 man deal, works perfect. Only downside is you need a decent sized compressor in order to keep up.
Yup. I hate that thing. I've always wondered why Honda only used them on certain vehicles/engines.

use a clean brake fluid bottle with some fluid in it already and run a vacuum line from the bleeder into the fluid on the bottle. Loosen the bleeder and go pump the brakes. rinse and repeat.
