add front and rear strut braces, performance bushings and good tires, and stainless brake lines w/ performance pads and forget the drive shaft - your just pissing money away. Car should be a good corner carver, there is more you could do, but not without dropping major $. weight reduction and I think they make a quick ratio steering box upgrade as well.

Most of those mods do nothing to improve handling..

"Aftermarket control arms", which ones?

Toss in some bigger anti-sway bars & it'll probably handle pretty good though. What kind of wheels/tires does it have?

Get a panhard bar and bigger swaybars. And Steeda X2 balljoints up front to help the geometry
