Changing Plugs - What Else Should I Do While Intake is Off?

I'm changing my plugs this weekend. As long as I'm going through the trouble of taking the intake off, are there any other maintenance or mod projects that I should plan to do?

The plugs can be reached without taking off the intake manifold. Take each coil off the rear and use a long extention to reach the plugs.

Check for codes, and you might need to change the KS.

Great. I can save the time and trouble of taking off the intake to change the plugs. I thought I had to remove the plenum because my buddy has an '03 Maxima and he has to do it for his. I'll hose down my throttle body with some cleaner after I do the plugs. Thanks.
