If you're doing the IMS, you might as well do the RMS (its relatively cheap and its right there).

I'd leave the CV boots alone unless you have a problem or reason to do something.

I'd suggest using the Sachs clutch 3-pc kit. Works great. I'd also suggest a single mass light weight flywheel (Aasco) to replace the stock dual mass unit that is probably just about worn out at $57K miles. Do a search on the LWFW becuase there is some difference of opinion on using it with regard to damping of engine vibrations. All I can say is that I've had no problems whatsoever.
