Suspension questions? Would like some advice.

Suspension questions? Would like some advice.
I would like to get rid of some understeer and also the slight wobble and floaty feeling on the freeway. I know the H-Sport bars is a great way to go, but before I buy them, I wanted to know if the Stassis MS buy itself would also solve this problem. I do not track the car, and I know it would be a huge waste of money for the same result if I get just the bars, but I am also worried about the DRC failing one day. The second it does, I plan to go aftermarket.
Would H-Sports and Stassis MS be too stiff for just street use, espcecially with city driving.
Thanks for the help

No not too stiff at least not for me. You can start either way: bars or suspension but...
The bars are a lot cheaper and you could always wait until the DRC craps out to do the suspension.
BTW, set the rear bar setting on the stiffest position.

I took Stasis (one S)...
because of similar DRC concerns, highway floating, lane change roll, and because the stock ride is too high. It solved all those issues. Bars are way cheaper, but don't change the ride height. I don't track (yet) and have no need for bars until I do.

STaSIS isn't too stiff, to the contrary
much, much more compliant, better than stock by a mile...more refined, yet has ZERO roll or "float"...best mod for this car by far, other than the Millteks of course

Also consider the STaSIS SL coilovers
I do track my car and auto-x the SL set up "just right" and is a less expensive option than the MS. The SL's get rid of the "floaty" feeling with the car on the highway improves the responsiveness makes the car more neutral, less push, and makes the overall diving experience just that much better.
I don't think it is too stiff and makes a vast improvement over stock. The dampers are not adjustable as the MS is but if your not tracking the car it is really overkill, IMHO.
