that is my exact car. mine has the non-sport from the factory. here's what I did and it has made a great difference. replaced stock dampers with Bilstein HD. new meyle HD sway bar links. SP lowering perches up front. pulled the pin on the dampers and maxed out front camber. all new damper hardware top and bottom on the rear shocks and top strut mounts on the front.

hi,

maybe "where to begin" is decide and say what you want to accomplish?
better handling? / lower the car? / maintain or improve ride quality? / street or track?
budget?
how are you roads?

in this thread:

two track guys (the Hack and CJ421) weigh in on the topic of what has the most impact on handling (not swaybars). Nice hierarchy and both say similar things.

edit
and here's a nice piece by a vendor
