Re: Can a 1G handle? Seriously.
Any car can handle decent, but you need to start at the base and work up. That base is tires. What you get is up to you, but the top street tires at the moment are Dunlop Direzza Z1 Star Spec, Kumho Ecsta XS and Hankook RS-3.
As equally important as tires is alignment. Get yourself a degree or two of negative camber in front, a negative degree in the rear, and you'll have a car that is more responsive than you thought was possible.
Beyond that, you need to look at springs and shocks. DSMs have a good assortment of shocks to choose from, and if I were you I'd just mate a good set of adjustable shocks with some good springs.
Beyond that, a bigger rear swaybar will help the car rotate in the turns, and adding a front swaybar will add more overall grip but help keep the car neutral while turning.
If you're feeling really crazy you can start putting in polyurethane bushings all around. Old cars make more use of this than newer cars, but it's the last thing I'd do, especially if your suspension isn't sloppy.
