agreed... nice setup... handles well..

if you've got a stock front bar, just get a back one, which will dial out the understeer...
upgrading both isn't bad, but if you can only afford one, get the rear...

If you can afford it, get a good set of coilovers, either DSS or Ground Control. Both are excellent & allow you to determine your spring rates for better handling. After those, you'll want to upgrade your stock shocks. I HIGHLY recommend Koni Yellows. Adjustable & extremely well known in racing circles. If those are out of your budget, pick up a set of KYB AGX's. Still adjustable, just not as many options as Koni's.
The RM sway bars are definitely the way to go. Good call guys.
With this setup you'll be able to adjust everything, ride height, stiffness of shocks, corner weights, everything your DSM needs.

I'd say koni yellow with H&R springs. I have tokicos and eibachs on my car (but its the prokit) and I find this setup to be softer than I expected.

If you want a good all around setup, B+G makes really good coil over system, yet JIC takes the cake.
