go for coilovers if you want superior handling.. try looking at these brands.. tein, HKS and ksports but theres more.. you would need a good sway bar, i recommend hotchkis front and rear.. and get some front and rear endlinks from dezod.. rear strut bar and i think thats all the essential ones.. anti roll bars, strut bars too if you want

coilovers will be around 800-1300, good ones are at least 1100.. swaybars are like 250? if i remember it right. endlinks are about maybe 200 for front and rears.. just do some search and you'll get more ideas and good deals

this is what I have done for ta events tein ssp edfc, sways bars, strut bars front and rear, camber kit, AND THE MOST important think is getting your car counter balance so your car has the same weight on each tire

ssp w/ edcf alone will cost you like 1500-1600.. but you would notice least difference if not non on strut bars.. if you get one the rear is more useful.. camber is not a must and will only be useful if you know what you are doing.. but yeah do counter balance and get good tires.. tires plays a lot.. on a budget the only thing i would buy are coilovers, sway bars, endlinks, tires and thats it
