Better handeling with stock springs?
I cont lower the car any due to the roads in my area, are there any good struts/shock, or other suspension parts (aside form FLSFC's) that can help the handling any?

Bilstein HD struts & shocks, maximum motorsports lower control arms, & panhard bar will all help handling...

Re: Better handeling with stock springs?
I'll make the obligatory IRS swap suggestion...
in all seriousness though...H&R's race springs don't' actually lower much if at all and they are nice and stiff...some tociko d-specs would probably be nice. too.

Run coil-overs. You won't have to lower it.

Re: Better handeling with stock springs?
I ran Bils with the stock springs for a while and it was quite good.As a street car with no track duty that is my recommendation.
