Default tune up

I bought my car in February and have been doing the normal tune up items here and there. what i want to know is what have i missed. So far i have

1. drained/flushed radiator
2. changed MT fluid
3. replaced fuel filter
4. replaced spark plugs
5. replaced valve cover gasket (small leak)
6. replaced spark plug grommets (leaking)
7. new belts
8. new pcv valve
9. changed oil and filter (obviously, just for you smart asses out there)

I'll be buying the new wires, dist. cap and rotor button this week. The previous owner said she had the timing belt, water pump replaced at 87,000 mile or so. She had no documentation but i planned on changing them later when i build the engine, (year and a half or longer?). So is there anything i missed?
