Question blobeye ~500 pound budget. What to get?

Guys, I need some help.

I've got about 500 quid to blow on the car (03 UK WRX). I've already got a godspeed big brake kit, so I think I may spend some of this money on suspension.

Essentially, for about 500 quid, I can:

1. Get some eibachs using stock dampers and a rear arb and solid drop links and laser geometry.

2. Get a cheap set of koni dampers with the springs they come with (Koni Sport Adjustable Suspension), extend my budget a little and get a laser alignment after fitting them.

3. Set of (used) Spec-C struts + laser alignment.

I'm clearly quite confused about this issue, so could someone please comment on the above (or suggest something else)

£500 would buy you a remap (just) which is probably where I'd put my money but in suspension it would be solid drop links (£60-ish), adjustable ARB (£100) Eibach sport springs (£165ish), anti-lift kit (? £120 but not at all sure) and an alignment to finish. This will totally transform your car and by keeping the original dampers you will have something that won't jiggle your teeth out.
