I'd aim a little higher than the 8600GT. While I agree the hate against the card was, in my opinion, a little overdone (it was expensive, but it was still an "okay" card), the 9500GT is basically the 8600GTS (it's not the same card, but performance is almost identical). I'd therefore think the 9400GT was about the same performance as the 8600GT, maybe a little weaker.

There's a big gap between the 8600GTS/9500GT and the 9600GT/8800GT/9800GT and up though. I'd spring for a one of those three at the worst, but a GTS 250 (which is essentially a GeForce 9800GT+), or a Radeon HD4850/4870 are also very cheap (~$130 or less typically) and will be perfectly fine.

By the way, I have done a 8600GTS OC to 8800GT OC upgrade (both MSI, both factory overclocked), and it was a REALLY big upgrade across the entire board. A 9400GT to a 8800GT would be an even bigger upgrade, let alone a 9400GT to a GTS 250 or higher. Remember, all of these cards are ~$130 or less, so they're not exactly expensive.
