Strut choice is usually the Koni adjustable struts. Springs are just a matter of choice as they are all pretty much the same performance wise.
As far as brakes goes, if you want to stop on a nickel :rolleyes: Your gonna have to get a big brake kit which is not cheap. This kit will pretty much snap your neck when you hit the brakes.
Sway bars...there are some: a 21mm bar from SCA and a 22m bar from BAT. Also I think the AAM Hollow 24mm bar is being sold again and in my opinion better than the other two.

A set of stickier tires will also help the cornering and stopping. You can have the best brakes, and awesome cornering power, but if you are running on a set of tires that is meant to last forever, you will still give the ABS a workout and be able to break the car free is you corner too hard.

thats right the battle of keeping the car on the road will always come down to where the rubber meets the road.
Choose your tires wisely.
