I did seats first and waited for my shocks to blow to get coilovers. 40k miles later, shocks still haven't blown with the springs i got on there.

Maybe not, but I'm sure they have degraded to the point that they will accelerate tire wear.

how about a vafc II buy install and tune group buy?

Predominantly will help 1st gen AP1's. Gains after that do exist, but are minimal. VTEC engagement can be smoother and earlier.

Does a 70mm make that much of a difference with a SC?

I would completely concur if not for my "freakish" body dimensions.

I can't pass a broomstick test with the OEM seats they way they are.

I need to talk to Skip about this... Seeing how he has the rollbar and the seats I am considering. I'll get with him tomorrow and schedule a test fit.

Because you are larger, the seats are less of a priority for you(and you have fewer choices). Someone smaller will slide around a lot in stock seats and no CG-Lock mechanism. I know... I was that guy. That in turn wears you out, trying to use the dead pedal to lock you into the seat.

You are more than welcome to shoehorn yourself into the seats I have, however, they are one of the narrowests seats available. 33" waist here and I could probably drive without a seatbelt and never move. OTOH, my last instructor was(probably still is) 6'3"- 240 lbs. He never moved.
