Before changing out your shock/springs, get sways.
I had daizen sways installed and they made a lot of difference
If you're a firm guy, I hear trd are firmer than daizens.
Then if you're still not happy, either go with the stiffer shocks (bilsteins) or coils as mentioned above.
Then look at lexforlife and go nuts should you not be happy

Hey lexforlife, check my suspension list in my profile. It's almost up there with you minus some of the tom's stuff. I just installed my Daizen sways and strut bar a few days ago. However at this point, I still have some undesireable roll/tilt. The car still feels kind of wobbly when I do quick lane changes. The sways really really helped compared to before when I only had the Flex.
I realize the GS is a heavy car, but I want to make it handle as tight as possible. In my car, there is still that little bit of roll/tilt. I'll try to describe it as best as I can. When I flick the wheel in a quick lane change, the car tilts for a split second and then flattens back up very quickly...kinda like a quick spring rebound. I drove my friends IS300(sways, springs, shocks) and the car stays flat on flick lane changes. It doesn't even have that initial lean/tilt. I realize the IS is a much lighter car so that might be why.
Do you experience this in your car with all the extra toms braces? Did you experience that before you installed the toms braces. Just seeing how much the braces really help and that will determine for me how how up of a priority they are gonna be on my mod list.
Also how low is your suspension? My front wheels have about one inch gap (2 finger). The rear is less than 1/2inch. Also, I think it was you that was talking about the roll center adapters a little while back. Did those help at all?

Go with the Daizen front suspension bushings. You will be pleased. I have the Tein CS lowered to no gap and TRD sway bars. I had a lot of slop in the front end with some vibration at highway speeds plus vibration when braking at highway speeds. All that has disappeared with the installation of these bushings.
