If you're not driving it, I say leave it alone. Unless your mommy specifically is complaining about it's boat-ness, it should be just fine for her. Why do you care how your mom's car drives?

Well, the new cams are HUGE. new suspension will help yes, but the car is still huge.

How do you know she doesn't have a bit of nautical spirit and maybe likes the wavey ride? My parents curse when they ride in my car compared to their '02.

ya id say get the sway bar off the se model, and the TRD suspension. my parents se has the TRD suspension and it drives friggin awsome, so stiff and responsive, and it sits just over an inch lower which makes it look so much better also

I like the SE suspension. Not too soft, not too hard, and grips pretty well.
