Well, it is possible to get carried away and carry all sorts of spares, but I'd concentrate on having a few tools to supplement the factory tool roll, like a decent 3/4" ratchet and socket set with a few extensions, electrical tape, fuses, wire, small hammer, etc..
I would also check your jack and spare tire and air compressor for proper operation, do a mock flat tire change and see how it goes. I carry an aluminum 944 jack along with the metal insert for the original longitudinal in addition to the factory jack. The factory set-up needs a flat surface and you never know where a flat will occur. The 944 scissors jack is a bit more flexible in application. I also carry a tire plug kit, it takes up little room and it may fix a simple nail/screw type puncture. I also carry a quart or two of oil.
And a decent shop manual stashed somewhere. SC's are a transitional car into modern electronics and is sort of electo/mechanical. Unlike the later Carrera which has some odd relays and sensors that can go TU at a moments notice and kill the car, the SC's engine/fuel system tends to start running rough, so that you know something is wrong and needs attention, but they usually keep running to get you somewhere for a proper repair.
This stuff takes up little room, and it will usually suffice to at least get you to a shop for a proper repair. Some people carry spare coils, fuels pumps, ignition parts, starter, etc., and I do on really long trips, but this short list will get you started.
A really good pre-inspection might catch something before the trip as well.
