first things first:
its your car, you decide what you want done
everyones going to give you different suggestions so it doesn't help you at all to ask

ask yourself what you want from your car. do you wanna autocross it or use it for track days or drag race it? or are you just wanting a clean looking daily driver. totally different ways to going about all of that stuff.

If its a daily driver, you can't go wrong with keeping it one. In this case, the key is just to make it a funner daily driver. The first mod I ever did was 6 years ago, and it was tein super streets and spoon strut bars. At 17yrs old, that was a LOT of money, but I still think it is one of the best things about my car.

Full tune up. all fluids, brake pads/shoes, belts, filters, plugs, wires etc. Dont throw away or other wise destroy any of the stock parts. Give it a proper detailing. Then you have to decide if you need to modify it. If you do, buy quality parts.

cant go wrong with a good tune up and detail. Suspension isnt a bad thing either. Makes driving through town fun as long as your roads are crappy lol.
