Your best upgrade for the money is buying an ounce of the Technics DD oil. The spindle well must be filled all the way to the top AT ALL TIMES. The manufacturer's suggested oiling once every 2,000 hours is wrong.
Analog upgrade path for less than $1200
I have recently gotten the LP bug after getting a AT95e cartridge and AT preamp for my 33 year old Technics SL1300 table. I know there is better sound to be had here and need some input on upgrading.
