When I started to change the suspension springs, I can imagine the difference. I´ts another car!!
Finaly, I´ve changed all the springs for a new Höffman set (shorter and stronger), new Koni dumpers, new bushings and completely rework all the suspension arms.
The difference is as folllows:
Before:
And after:
Was not so complicated as I thougt, a lot of time and more than 400$, but I am so happy with the result.
Corner speed increased dramaticaly. Now the car turn completely flat and change direcction is easyer than never.
Here you have all the details (sorry, is in spanish, but easy to translate with google or similar)
