A lot will depend on your ultimate objective (dedicated track car, DE/street hybrid, full-out race car) and how much you're willing to sacrifice in terms of resale on a collectable car like the RSA.

On a RSA, there are some simple things that can reduce weight, enhance performance, and likely not adversely effect resale (seats, suspension, lightweight wheels, exhaust). 

If there's a chance you may want to race in the future, you'll have to study the respective rulebooks of any potential sanctioning bodies (PCA, NASA) to make sure that any modifications don't violate any of the class rules.  Even if you don't plan on racing, some seamingly appealing modifications (like upgrading the brakes) may make it difficult to sell the car if the purchaser is interested in racing the car.

But then again, you may not want to take advice from me... as I've seriously slipped off the deep end in the past 12 months.
