    True. You'll find 90% of cars (even my own) have handling capabilities beyond that of the owners driving capabilities...some its a choice, some just aren't skilled enough or don't push there car for safety reasons.

    As string suggests...install a larger rear swaybar first then start getting into springs/shocks. As for strut bars etc. I find that they don't directly help handling but make the car noticably more predictable and stable which increases driver's confidence and control.

    Don't forget suspension/swaybars are nothing without grip...make sure you opt for at least some "semi-decent tyres" (eg. Bridgestone RE001, Yokohama S-Drives, Hankook RS2, Toyo T1R/S etc). Otherwise alot of it will be lost through poor ground contact.
