Default Question about my 95 Accord

My accord has just gone over 91k miles and I was just wondering what kind of maintenance issues I may need to start looking into. I've noticed that the ride quality has degraded (seems bouncier/loose in the suspension especially at freeway speeds) over the past couple hundred miles and it seems I may need to look into replacing the shocks. I was wondering if anyone could give me an idea of what else I may need to look into.

timing belt/water pump service should get done. probably need new struts. you should also replace distributor cap, rotor, wires, fuel filter. probably flush radiator fluid and bleed brake fluid and inspect brakes.

Motor Mounts? I bought mine with busted motor mounts, and yes I replaced everything else everyone has mentioned here including CV boots, a couple suspension bushings, charged a/c, cleaned upper intake (although I still need to clean TB...so freakin lazy to do this), and replaced PCV.

Oh wait no I didn't replace fuel filter...crap, hmm I think I might pay someone to do that.
