don't forget the pcv valve, one of the cheapest parts but one of the most important as well.

Get some Shen Itsu grease from Honda and lube the convertible seals and weatherstripping, good maintenance item.

Use Raggtop cleaner and preservative on the convertible roof.

Lubricate the slave cylinder and shifter if you can. Swap out the brake fluid and clutch fluid too. Consider a valve adjustment in the future.

I just bought my car with 55,000 miles, my initial list was as long as yours but has grown to about five times that length, one thing leads to another once you start doing searches on this forum. Tons of information available on this site to help you with your car.
