Just get a good quality cap and rotor with brass contacts. Other than that, sounds like you have it covered (I like the NGK's in my 98)

Have a Wells cap and rotor coming today with the brass. Going back to the Champs though, didn't really notice much difference with the Autos. But couple years back when i did the coil and wires upgrade did seem to have a bit more pep in the step...
