My 99 Boxster continuous/ongoing project

Hi all, been here for a while and lurk a lot. I am here everyday looking at what everyones doing.
I bought my car last February
Boxster artic grey
I think I have the sport interior package (gray console, three spoke steering wheel, etc.)
Since I got it
Changed:
-4 rotors;
-All brake shoes including parking;
-Tires;
-Added short shift kit and changed the knob;
-Change the AOS;
-All filters (cabin, air intake);
-Clean the rads;
-Few light detailing work.

This year I intend to do the following
-IMS bearing LN Eng (just ordered and I hope I ordered the right dualrow bearing);
-Changing spark plugs and tubes;
-Water pump that I bought last year and haven't installed it yet;
-Low temp thermostat (just bought);
-Fuel filter (just bought);
-I was intending to do the Pedros underdrive pulley (open to comments or suggestions...) swap since I also want to change my drive belt;
-Change coolant fluid;
-Brake fluid;
-Transmission oil change;
-Headlights retrofit/upgrades from nine8six.

My father was a mechanic in his younger years and I bought the car to spend some quality time with him and share his experience while I am getting my hands dirty.

Thought I would share this and if anyone have any suggestions or additional maintenance (required and preventive) let me know!

Eric
