Suggest First Suspension Mod
So I haven't made a decision on what to do for power in the car yet, and I don't think the power level is all that bad right now, certainly could use to be quicker though.
So what I would like to do is start modding the suspension of the car. But where to start. Lowering is an option but I am not ready to drop a G or more without some more research. I just want to have a fun car I can take to the track here and there and do some spirited driving, so race quality on the parts is not needed, but I'm not looking to buy EBay items... I am also not overly concerned with ride quality my wife may have a different opinion though So if it increases vibration or harshness of the ride I am ok with it.
What I am ready to do is spend around $300 to start the process. But where to start... Bracing? Sway bars?
Right now I am leaning toward bracing. I had a pretty braced civic back in the day and that made a huge difference in the car.
Any opinions?

imo, the chassis is already pretty stiff.
i'd go for an eibach drop. it's 1". barely noticeable, but i think it's perfect. ride quality is still there.
but yea, drop.
