What do you want out of the car next?
Myself I'd say panhard bar.
Really depends on budget and what you're trying to improve.

Not on your list but shocks would be next for me. What do you have for shocks now on the 12 year old car?

poly bushings.. change all your bushings to polyurethane and you'll notice a nice difference. I just did this and, whoa.. what a difference.. time consuming, but worth it.

then go
shocks/springs
adjustable panhard bar
sway bars (if you need them)
torque arm

make sure once you start doing all this, to get a very good alignment from a good shop

SHOCKS is the first thing these cars need. Then I would do sway bars and be pretty much done. You can get really good handling from just them 2 things.

I was kidding on this 25mm bar. Get a 22mm for handling.

+1. Do what he said. If you really want something from your poll, I'll do subframe connector.
