Well, what's your budget? Coilovers or stiffer struts + springs, sways, good tyres... there's lots of options depending on what class you want to run and how much you want to spend.

Whiteline Sways & and good set of coilovers and then just start messing around with the various settings (height, damping, spring rates, tire pressures, alignment, etc..) to get it setup to your liking. So many variables it drives me crazy!
