What he said

Swap in the rear suspension from the '88 and upgrade the front brakes to match. (Edit: I planned on doing that on my last '87, I'm sure I still have the paper pattern I printed of where to drill/cut.) Especialy if you fancy tracknights at Forrestburn, which you should, since you can probably see it from Harthill. It's beside the transmitters.
Coilovers are dead easy, I've done a few, either on the standard struts (cheap), or full Bilsteins (no change out of £400). '88 front bearings are a weak point so best to stick with the '84-'87 front, the carriage to Scotland is more than the bearings.
I'll swap you a set of redrilled Corvette 12" rotors, for your front bearings. You'll get the front conversion brackets in the Mall, Sluppy123, I think?
I can also rebuild your '88 calipers and a few other things.
If the rear subframe needs welded, or you want it reinforced, I can do that in exchange for a few bottles of Fraoch, or Skye Red.
