Schedule yourself to change the timing belt, tensioner, and serpentine belt at 130,000. It is the tensioner which really needs to be replaced.
As far as oil leaks and the RMS, keep the vacuum lines clean at the oil trap and the throttle body. A plugged PCV is disaster.
Have fun revving the car, it is built to do that.
