Coolant flush, replace T-stat, Brake fluid flush. Adjust timing, and get your injectors cleaned professionally, if you can be without the car, send them in to RC engeineering. Clean out throttle body.

No, you can clean the TB yourself. Just take off the intake and with a can of spray TB cleaner spray the heck out of it, clean off all the deposits off of it and the plate. The injectors I would have pressure cleaned by a service center, where they disonnect your fuel and run the car off of pressurized cleaner. The ones you buy at Pep Boys don't work as well.
