I've a UK MY99.

I had the bumpsteer mod, anti lift kit, solid front and rear drop links, and 4 wheel geometry done. Big difference.

IMO the best mods are bumsteer and the anti lift kit (you then need the geometry checked anyway).

Much less understeer!

Have fun

I've got 17's on mine (Prodrive PD7's). They were on since I got the car so I can't comment on the improvement in handling they might give. They look much better than the standard 16's tho!

Oh and I always use Toyo T1-S tyres
