There's a lot you can do with just bolt on components from various manufacturers like SpeedTech, BMR, and Detroit Speed. I'm sure there are others, too. Check the side bar for the various sponsors and their offerings.
The best thing to do will be to get a system that works together so that the components compliment each other. That means getting shocks that work with the spring rates you're running. Making sure your spring rates front and rear match your driving style, conditions, and tires among other things. Don't be afraid to contact the vendors and see what they recommend. Be very honest with yourself and them about the goals of the car. I think you are so really it's just finding what's in your budget and meets your needs.
My suggestion: better springs and shocks all around. Larger sway bars front and rear. Better upper control arms. Upgraded brakes front and rear. You can use another set of spindles to modify for the brakes instead of your current ones. Possibly upgraded steering box. Finally, good rims and tires.
