I say suspension. A slammed ride looks awesome, even if stock. On nice rims, the slammed look rules! As well as improving handling...
Then go intake / exhaust, coz it'll give you smallish but worthwhile gains in HP, as well as sounding good... then your ride will look and sound nice while you save for an engine swap, kit, or both. Good luck dude

Personally I would save up for the engine swap. I look at it as the foundation of your car. Once that is done you can go in any direction you want. That is what I am doing right now. I just bought those 95 GSR rims cause I always want them and they are in pristine condition. But i am saving up for my ZC swap. next month I will be buying a new clutch and the integ computer.

Suspension
Yea i would hafta agree with SiRedge and say go with some suspension work. If you do end up lowerering your car, throw in some things such as a tower bar/tie bars to help with more handling and get some nice rims that have wider tires on the and have alot of grip. Then like he said throw on an intake and maybe a exhaust system.

If you go the suspension route I would suggest you get an adjustable system, cause if you swap engine there is a good chance that the new engine will be heavier and throw off your weight distribution ratio.

Yeah my friends work at a shop and they can get good deals on a B16a swap package. That is where I am getting my swap done @. They keep trying to convince me to get the B16 swap instead of the ZC. So I have come down to this, if I can get a part time job that will work around my schedule, then I will go with the B16. hehe
