+1 on the tyres. Good tyres will help your braking, acceleration and handling. You can have all the mods in the world like a $25k carbon ceramic BBK, 182575rwhp and $20k suspension but if you don't have some semi decent tyres you might as well not bother.
If you don't want to fork out for a new set of tyres, just look for a used set of decent/good tyres. I purchased a used 245/35/18 square set of Michelin PSS with ~60% tread for $400 shipped from Melbourne just recently. Pretty sure I just saw someone selling some GTC AFF-1 wheels with a 225/245 PSS staggered set. I'm sure you'd be able to buy them from him for $400 as well.
Hell, I have an extra set of 225/255 Yokohama AD08Rs with 20% tread left I was going to keep to maybe go to a dry drift event on them but I'd consider selling them too.
