Service the trasmission, change the plugs, wires, fuel filter, check for any gasket leaks, check brake pads and visually inspect the lines, umm.......

Timing belt, water pump first and most importang thing you should do

Yea forgot the important stuff, also maybe thermostat, valve cover gasket if your feeling frisky

also i would change the cap and rotor on igniton.
check your fluids: brake, tranny, oil change, power steering, all that fun stuff. check the ac check the coolant. pads rotors. they say you should check your valves too but who actually does that. plugs, wires, timing belt water pump hoses (mentioned already)

how much is all that stuff gonna run me ?

cost you or cost her well....ill try to brake it down for you if i can:

oil change - u can do this yourself get high milage oil gonna run about $20 for everything

timing belt and water pump - depends if you buy both as a set on ebay itll run about $100 but from the dealership i think about $150-$200 if you do it yourself just for parts. to get it done depends where you go could be anywhere from $300 to $1000 (acura) to do yourself isnt hard if you have some mechanical experience. make sure you do it by the manual though you dont want to mess up the timing.

fluids- not much money just some time

check the brakes- pads, rotors lines- if everything is fine $0 if not could be up to about $300 for all four wheels pads and rotors

ignition- mine cost me about $150 for mantinence which included bosch +4 platinum plugs $50, bosch wires $50, cap and rotor kit $50

valve job- ????good question im not sure i think i touched em all if not ill write again later

 

[nexgenintegra]

also you should change the fuel filter $20 air filter $20

i think so. im sure they got it make sure you get the timing belt and water pump done. 90,000 miles is the end of the line time to change. spend the money now and save yourself and her in the future

 

[DC2Integ]

thanks guys i get paid tommorrow so ill have the cash then.

I would start running synthetic, but thats me. If you do tho then you have to stick with synthetic.
