TiTAN Suspension
Suspension advice is very easy for me to give you. If you're in Malaysia or are in countries with highly irregular road qualities, where the absorbers always fail in relatively short period of time, i.e. damaged within 3 months or 6 months or 1 year. Then use TiTAN.
Their absorbers are of high quality and best bang for the buck because they are over-engineered :) hehehehe. They are INDESTRUCTIBLE, highly comfortable, yet very very performance. You will never find another brand in this world that can do all of this, most notably "indestructible".
Last I heard, a little Perodua Kelisa Rally Car in 2002 jump sky high and fell down and broke the rims. TiTAN was not only in one piece but 100% undamaged and fully functional. That Rally team did not change the absorber and still uses it until today.
So, take the replacement strut hopefully with large rotors and go to TiTAN to be fixed up with their coil over absorbers.
I guarantee you that just with these mods (i.e. brakes, larger tyres & suspension), you'll be faster than before, even without modifying the engine whatsoever.
I recommend 3.3 kg/mm front and 3.3 kg/mm rear. This is what TiTAN have closest to what I feel I need. 50% 50% - yes, because this car has 52% front 48% rear weight distribution to start of with.
If 3.1 kg/mm for the front is available may be better, because this car under-steer allot. Good for daily driving, but not sport. See also AE86's Suspension Setup in Sony Play Station Grand Turismo
The issues of handling is not only limited on suspension, but also including anti-sway-bars, weight reductions and balance, strut tower top anti roll bars, chassis strengthening and more........

Now that the issues of safety and handling is settled, we proceed to increase engine power. hhehehehehehehe
