Increasing High speed Handling? C70 1998

posted by  someone claiming to be John H. on  Mon Mar 11 08:37 CST 2002 [RELATED]

I would like to know if any c70 owners have been able to increase the road handling characteristics of their vehicle at high speeds (80+ MPH), and still be able to maintain the soft cruising feel in the city? Is this possible?, if so how?
I want to decrease body roll at high speeds, and decrease nose drive in high speed braking. I'm willing to upgrade shocks, struts, springs and suspension, but I'm not willing to increase the road bumpyness. I still want the cruising feel in the city and open highway. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
