I disagree. This was never a problem...my car took corners like a champ. Maybe when the car is doing 120 in mph corners, it experiences that problem but that is not my concern at that point.

Oh yes....of course. This applies to pretty much any one that has gone from rear beam to independent rear suspension. I just used B13-B14 because these are the popular choices.So I used them for reference...I just happen to own both too...

By fully bolted I mean , Full suspension bushings done all around, coil over suspension, swaybars front and rear, tower strutbars front and rear. Lower control arm brace. pretty much the maximum level you can go before disrupting the balance of a street car to track car.

The B13 being a hair lighter is what sort of turned me to go this route in the first place.....but my first impressions of the b13 was not great from the start....the suspension was very inconsistent I actually had to take it easy the first 2 weeks I was driving the car, it made me that nervous...the best way to describe the car is that it felt like it was propped up with 2 wobbly stilts in the back. I'm sort of mastering it now but honestly I thought this problem would go away once the suspension was modded but I was wrong...
