The best mod a person can make to a Sport is sway bar disconnects. The solid front axle comes into its own when it's disconnected from the swaybar. Best return on investment you'll get from suspension upgrades.
If you don't want to go over board, just gain some clearance to run a 33 without any rubbing then the parts required would be;
Front sway bar disconnects
2" front springs
2.25" rear springs - this is to return the factory rake. I prefer it, some do not. It makes the car turn in faster.
Set of shocks for a 2-3" lift
bump stop extensions
a bracket to extend the rear brake line - this is just a piece of metal 15mm x 40mm with a hole in each end and a bolt with nut. DIY
That set up will allow the use of a full 33x12.5 on aftermarket rims with a good improvement in articulation. Particularly when the front is disconnected.
No need for correction brackets, track bars or any of that. Factory geometry isn't modified enough for it to be a concern. This is also offset by the fitting of aftermarket bars, winch etc.
