Default Suspension Bolt-Ons: Newbie Here!!

1994 Honda Civic DX. Car is lowered on adjustable coil-overs and KYB shocks. What else can I do to the suspension to "tighten" it up a bit?

Front and rear sway bars are always an excellent upgrade and this is something that you can feel when you take a turn.

Another thing that will make a difference is pre-load all your suspension bushings.

What kind of coilovers are they?

I put on GSR rear LCAs and sway bar and it made a difference, the ride feels tighter. But if you want a vast improvement you might need stiffer, or adjustable, shocks, and better springs or coilovers.

Sway bars ftw
I recently installed swaybars on my hatch with tokico illuminas and it made a worl of difference.
The tokico's were a bug improvement over stock, and the sway bars are a big improvement over the tokicos by themselves

Any place in particular to purchase the sway bars from? I'm a student working with a budget.
