30k Miles Do-it-yourself plan

Guys.

1k miles to go before I pass 30k miles.

The plan so far is to buy:

5 Qrt Mobil One
Purolator PurOne Filter
5 Qrt Acura OEM ATF
? Qrt Acura Brake Fluid
Acura OEM Cabin Filters (2)
Hot-Street Kevalar Brake Pads (Which Brand ???)

Optional:
SS braided Brake lines

Of course, i will clean and re-oil my CAI Cone filter.

Did I miss anything?

Brake Pads are in the plan .... How much Brake Oil fluid is needed . I do not know.

I may also let a local Honda/Acura Master Tech do the brakes job.

brake pads are easy...just like in most honda cars....and any other car for that matter...

master tech isnt much of a master, believe me....a chilton manual helped me trouble shoot why my car would hesitate. master tech couldnt figure it out after multiple visits, and the repair manual wasnt even for my car, it was for a 90 chrysler lebaron..!!!

usually, completely flushing brake system takes less than a quart of fluid...

Brake pad recommendation?... Hot Street Performace... Something better than stock, great bite, no squeal, no dust....

Maybe I will get more than 5Qrt of ATF ... 9Qrts should be enough.

I may also get some Iridium plugs ( NGK or Denso ).
