Look,..all I mean is to take it easy first,...you know baby steps, before you spend a lot of wasted money on a route that might not be exactly what you want. What might be good for me and another guy doesn't mean that it will be good for you. If your not into removing the sway bar because of handling purposes then maybe a good set of stickey tires (like drag radials or road race tires) is what you really should go after with a good set of lower control arms like the south sides or mega-bites like listed earlier by someone else.
You also mentioned that your trying not to spend to much money, so the advise that I gave you, was to see what you like,.. with out spending money. (I personnaly don't mind driving a car with no sway bars.)
"More considerable work" what?
Well,..what I meant was going to a complete suspension kit from like Griggs, Steeda or even Saleen to mention a few. There kits would include things like control arms, panhard bar, bigger sway-bars, there specific rate springs (I personnally like Eibach Pro kit), Adjustable struts and shocks (KYB, Koni, just to mention a few.)
But this of course takes some money,...maybe more then you care to spend.
You can also try to remove all unwanted weight from the front for better weight transfer. Remove things such as A/C or how about putting on a late weight fiberglass hood.
I can keep going and going...
Maybe you should be more specific.
Your meaning of being able to handle a corner is very vague. Everyone has a different meaning of a good or bad handling car.
That's another reason why I said to TRY IT out first. (removing the sway bar.) I personnally don't understand why you would put on 4 cylinder springs with out removing the sway bar?
How about just replacing the front struts with a pair of 90/10's and call it a day?
Hope this helps
