Haven't seen reference to the Crankshaft Position Sensor. Easy, easy to replace and these do seem to go out somewhere soon past 100 K. I guess you could replace the entire Alternator now, while doing the motor mounts. It is one of the harder jobs (did my '04 Arc at 125 K) I've done.
I wouldn't fool with the radiator. I would keep a spare belt, belt tensioner, pulleys and water pump handy and do them when something in that area needs work on it.
You could change out the gearbox fluid on that 5 speed; Eeuroparts has the right fluid.
If you can't find time to purge the entire braking system, evacuate the fluid from the reservoir and refill from a new bottle. I do this often, and I think it permits me to stretch the interval on the complete flush.
Absolutely start carrying a spare DIC with you in the car.
