You would in fact better benefit from thicker swaybars before springs. You will not hit the bumpstop.

You would benefit from 16"/17" wheels with good tires over 14" rims before springs as well.

This is for handling peformance so a spring upgrade making you look good has nothing to do with performance.

Just a thought.

Some of my personal ideas. Some may better but this is how I would go at. It is pretty basic and crude. There are more advanced things that could be done.

1.Tires - bigger wheels if you have 14's. RX-7 rims to save money.

2.Swaybars

3.RRE lower tie bar. If you are going to get one, this would be the most critical point. Front lower.

4.Good brake pads - not metal master

5.Struts

6.Springs - eibach pro-kit 1.3" drop

7.polyurethane bushings - get rid of that slop

8.seats - good ones

9.Quaife

10.roll cage - a stiff heavy car can outhandle a flimsy light one

11.lighten whatever you can without losing driveability

No this is not the setup of my car. It is close. I am not adamant about the roll cage and lightening yet because I want to keep its liveability so to speak.
