I thought about it some more, and think a list makes more snese, then answering your question...

I don't remember what all you have done besides springs, but here is the order I think that makes the most sense at least for an STX legal car. I balenced cost vs. benefit in establishing order. some of these are so close they are interchangable up or down 1 or 2.

Did I miss anything guys, or any big disagreements in order?

Seat Time
Harness
Camber Bolts and alignment
Tires
Brake pads
Drop in Air Filter
Sway bars (with adjustable end links, Poltec!)
Springs/dampers/coilovers
ALK Bushings only
Exhaust (Uppipe, and Turbo back must have Cat!)
Flash
Underdrive pulley
Engine/pitch mounts
Short throw shifter

Those are the basics, Then... (Order on these is ify)
Did I mention Seat Time?
Camber/Caster Plates
Better springs/dampers/coilovers bump and rebound adjustable
Brakes? (OK, for STX you don't need these, but if you plan to track it, you may.)
Headers
Rear Lateral Links (loose rear camber bolts and plates if used)
CAI?
