Default Need more Handling

So I just got my 4th gen SS. Going through a turn I drop the clutch and start my slide. The car handled well but after I regained control the car kept swaying. Is there any mods to lower and stiffen the susp? Im used to my 3rd gen, Stiff and lower also.

There's always the "Check over thoroughly my just purchased used car mod." It could be any number of worn out, missing, broken, loose, or incorrect parts.
