Default b16 swap questions

i have found a good deal on a b16, so within the next few weeks i will be buying/swapping this into my car. the car runs fine now, but heres my list of items i think would make my life easier before any problems have the chance to show up.

the motor/trans has 141,xxx miles now and will be pulled around 143,xxx so i figure this is what i'll need:

exedy stg 1 clutch kit $269.90 (ebay)

rear main seals $8.99 (autozone)

ngk iridium spark plugs $28 (autozone)

bosch wires $57 (autozone)

honda mtf $30 (honda)

hawk ceramic pads $61.49 (local shop)
(my brakes are overdue for changing anyhow)

oem replacement rotors $70 (honda)

all that brings my total to right under $600, my question is: should i go ahead and replace the starter and dizzy to prevent failure? these 2 parts raise the price by another $250.

the wp and timing belt have been replaced within the past 4k (i helped so i know it was actually done) along with driver axle, and ball joint.
