Name a budget and what you want to accomplish and we'll guide you through it. Atleast name a budget for us. Without a budget we'll all tell you to but a TRD or Whiteline rear sway bar, a Whiteline FSB and get in the D2 coilover group buy going on.
RSB is the largest single improvement you can make on the handling. It also happens to be the next to cheapest thing you can do.
Lowering in itself doesn't help handling. It's the stiffer springs and struts that give that. Something else to consider is that if you want to lower the car and get better handling, you must buy the struts with the springs. Even brand new OEM struts will start sagging quickly on lowered springs.

sorry about the wrong section(Mods want to move this?)
By the time im going to buy these the budget will proberbly be about 600 to 1000 dollars AU. So i figure seing that im in Australia i can get the whiteline stuff to save money on shipping (rather than imported from group buys as they are still expensive to ship). What whiteline Gear should i get? im interested in the lowered/stiffer springs as well. If i go over budget i can just sasve a little more (im just a poor student)
Also thanks for the reply

Ahh....I don't know anything about aussie currency.
Springs (Eibachs are the best. They never sag.)
Struts (perhaps look into tockiko blues. It is a very common used strut.)
Swaybar (Whiteline or TRD)
Strut Tower Bar Front and back(It'll connect your struts which give you stiffer suspension. But be warned, the back strut bar will take up some trunk space.)
noofa not an ebay strut tower bar, they don't do anything useful.
They're soo poorly made and fitted they generally just flex with the suspension instead of tieing the towers together.
