I would get NGK plugs, OEM cap, OEM rotor, OEM wires, and an OEM fuel filter. Why would you do a tune-up on the D16 when you're swapping in a B16 soon? Save your money.

^^ i agree with NGK plugs, OEM rotor, OEM cap, OEM fuel filter, but i would run NGK ignition wires. and really dont even do the tune up if your gonna swap in the near future its really not worth it at all.
