Koni shocks are great too if you can't afford Bilsteins but I love Bilsteins as well.

I would get in touch with pro-touring f-body <------ they are a sponsor as well as SC&C or even Detroit Speed and Engineering and start looking around and see what they offer and what they recommend. DSE is not cheap though. Even though you are a hard top, I would start bracing the car. pro-touring f-body has under hood braces that will keep the front subframe from flexing so much. You can also change to solid body bushings to get rid of the rubber that is more than likely shot if it has not been replaced. Subframe connectors are a must but only after you have done the subframe bushings and are certain the front subframe is aligned and square. You can simply cut your front coil springs to drop the front and stiffen them up a little bit. It's a budget way to achieve the desired stance that works. Brace the car first, then work on suspension bushings. Welcome to the site. There's never enough second gens here.
