OK, assuming you want a mild street setup:

My suggestion for the front: Stage II package from SC&C http://www.scandc.com/suspensions.htm - This will do more for you than the GW setup by a long-shot. You have the option to keep your stock brakes and 15" wheels, your geometry is improved, It's cheaper, and you reduce bump-steer and keep your turning radius. It will drop your car about 3/4" in front. Something like a Hotchkis spring and a 1-1/8" sway bar will work well if you want to keep the smooth ride, and don't intend to autocross the car.

In the rear, keep your stock upper arms and put new rubber bushings in them. Lowers, you could use the factory F-41 style boxed arms and 7/8" F-41 sway-bar. Again, just use rubber bushings. Don't use any poly-urethane/poly-graphite or delrin bushings in the rear. The binding will make the car ride like crap, and handle mediocre at best.

now if you want to autocross it... I've got some different suggestions
