I will say turbo sway bars give immediate happiness.

I have synthetic all around (have stopped using in engine but again will revert back) but except for the gear box you do not really feel the difference.
Tinted the glasses which made a difference to kids and looks (Gray wagon),

Insulated the roof which may be reducing the heat load of the cage(in retrospect I feel that I should have used better insulation).

Rebuilt the Driver's seat , a good amount of happiness there.

A new headlight circuit to reduce the loss of voltage (brighter lights but you have to be the owner to feel the difference ).

There are lots of other maintainence jobs and new parts to keep the brick on road which takes most of the time/money and effort.

If you want to keep the car for some time then make the improvements ASAP so that you can enjoy them.
