$1500 seems a bit on the low side for your motorswap extras budget. i'd save up a bit more. or, get a roller with a bad motor. save yourself $1k or so.

True, but spirited driving in the meantime with the added power on an OE suspension is that much more a safety issue. While I can agree the OP does not seem to be a moron, how many people do we see drop an SR in and then stuff the car into a ditch the next day?

I agree with mehsilvia to the tee.

Do invesst in some new shocks and springs at least to start, tire compound however and class limitations will get you farther than suspension + ok tires or sub-standard.
