Sometimes you can get good results with stock springs and just uprate the dampers to gas pressurised units.

Stiffening an anti-roll bar will also tighten things up without altering the ride height.

Strut braces also take up the slack in the bodyshell and can really transform a car's handling if its body is naturally on the flexible side.

In general, lowering a car realyl doesn't do much for the handling (or ride).

What you really want to do is look for ways of lowering the centre of mass.
