Basically I just want to get that last little bit of slop out of it. I don't want a tail happy drifter, thats not my thing.

I'm 53 and have been modifying cars for a long time, so I know what I want to do, its just harder to explain because I'm not after looks or drifting, but I won't build this one as an all out time attack car either.

Don't get me wrong the car is excellent. I just know that with a few key mods I think it could be really close to perfect for an actual street car

The drivetrain bushings take a good amount of windup out of the system. I wouldn't be opposed to the transmission bushing insert and a set of STI motor mounts. If you still feel it's lacking then maybe consider others but I would start there.

Chassis wise I don't really see much of a point until you start running sticky tires and stiffer spring rates to go with them. Most of them are just feel items. Maybe I would consider the subframe inserts on a street car, I don't think I would really want anything else.

What you consider perfect for a street car is going to be different than others. I'd spend more time driving it and deciding where you feel it is falling short then going at it with a bunch of parts this early in ownership.
