Daily Driver suspension (89 Firebird V-6 5-speed)

What would be suggested as far as suspension for a Daily Driver? Car has 177k on it and it seems that the suspension/steering components are completely stock. Not looking to spend a fortune, but my thoughts so far after some reading and searching:

DropZone V-6 springs
KYB struts/shocks
Formula 16" rims and tires
Quick ratio steering box
34mm hollow front sway bar w/ poly bushings
23mm rear sway bar w/ poly bushings
TDS Wonderbar

I really prefer not to lower the car at all. Anyone have any suggestions for non-lowering springs that won't give me too harsh of a ride? Honestly I loved the way my 88 TA handled with Eibachs and Bilsteins, but I don't really want to spend the money on a set of Bilsteins for a car I paid $750 for.
