Im going to have to say... no.

Cars are all about compromise.

If you want performance, you have to sacrifice something (usually a lot of things)

Handling costs ride
power costs manners and economy
cars that do all things well cost money

It won't be that smooth, ever. But it can be a LOT better than it is..... The stock shocks ride badly particularly in the rear. The LCA's you have are hurting your ride (any LCA bushing other than than the stock one will ride harder, that's why the stock ones have those open areas in them). Your LCA brackets are hurting ride. If you have a big rear bar, dump it for a stock sized one.

But doing some good shocks that are meant to ride better, like the Bilstein HD's would go a long way to making the car more what you'd like.
