$800 is MORE than enough for a competent setup.
Most people on the internet will swear up and down you have to buy GC's and Konis for a good setup. That is totally not true. You have to ask yourself...do you need adjustability?
If not, then pick the drop you want, go with the springs that provide that, and match them up to the NA shocks of your choice. Koni Reds, Tokico Blues, KYB GR-2's, whatever. Theyre dirt cheap. AGX's are nice and not much more, so its tempting to go with those regardless of your need for adjustability.
Camber kits are not always necessary depending on your drop. Install the suspension, let it settle, get an alignment and have the toe straightened out, and check out your numbers on the sheet. They will tell you how concerned you have to be. Over the next few weeks, monitor your tire wear. If you start to see inner tire wear that soon, rotate the tires and get a camber kit as soon as you can. If you dont see any noticeable inner tire wear, just rotate your tires frequently and chances are you'll be more than fine.
Dont listen to the "-2deg or more and you need a camber kit" it just isnt true.
