What is the best (and cheapest) way to improve the handling, providing the least amount of body roll in turns? shocks? springs? strut bar?

both strut bars probably would make sense but IMO my bar does very little to improve handling....but then again i have yet to retighten the bolts. hey but you said least body rolls in turns. twisties are my favorite. i should have spent my money to lower the car if i wanted to improve handling. my car almost slides off the curve in a turn or i'm going too fast.
so, my point is, I am taking a guess that lowering the car w/ springs and struts to go with it is your best bet, even though some will say it's a waste of time modidng your ES. i say "taking a guess" cuz my car isnt lowered. i'm just giving u the opinion of someone who drives around w/ a strut bar.

I have Eibach springs and Tokico shocks and I can truly tell a difference. Although I also have an upper strut bar and a rear anti-sway bar, i feel like the springs and shocks made the biggest difference. I drove a friends same body style ES and it really made me appreciate my setup. I know people say you shouldn't waste your time modding an ES, and although it still might not be a sports car, the modifications still make a huge difference in handling.
