Now you tell us

What else have you got, and more importantly what don't you like/would like to improve?

Coilovers with 10kg/7kg springs - huge difference.
Whiteline anti lift kit - made a MASSIVE difference to get rid off turn in understeer and power-understeer, it also made the front suspension absorb little bumps better.

I still run the std 17mm rear anti roll bar, and i dont see the point changing that other than to remove some body roll, but then i would change the front also. Do you guys think the handling is improved with only a fat rear bar? I think that the only thing it does is to get less grip in the rear so the car becomes tail happy..? Or am i completly wrong..?
