Just like a car, a good service always makes things better.
Yeah you can upgrade bits but what with it being that old, you might find that getting "performance" parts is quite limited.
If your genuinely serious, buy you self a good frame and build it over a bit of time. Can take all the bits like saddle, bars ect off your old one as a temp thing to save money.
Frame is always the best upgrade you can make because it links everything! And you would be surprised as what difference having a frame that has geometry set up to your height, weight ect would make! Weight also makes a big difference. My new frame is all steel and from previous experience, know it is rock solid and that weighs sod all!
