my 2 cents

Well, with $200 bucks you are rather limited on what you can get.

All of the above mentioned suggestions are good improvements. You just need to check your equipment and see what shape things are in. If the shocks are bad, that would be my first job. I got some KYB rear shocks and replaced my rear sway bar with a 24mm and ES bushings. HUGE difference in traction/acceleration.

Measure your sway bars, if they are a good size, you could just replace the bushings w/poly, shocks, and struts with nice aftermarket pieces for right around $200 bucks, provided you DIY.

That won't give you adjustable shocks/struts or anything, but I think you said you are only streeting it anyway right?

I think this will give you a nice pocket friendly improvement in traction and ride quality. It shouldn't be as costly or time consuming as welding SFC's or LCA's / reloc. brkts.

SORRY! This wasn't supposed to be a new post.
Please delete this if you know how.
