    I'd do suspension before roll bar everytime. Standard gear is bound to be past it's best.

    personally id go suspension first as it would improve handling, and as an added bonus you get a more aggressive looking car

    Will vwr springs be ok? don't really want to spend $ on coilovers as it's just a daily. Just want a little handling improvement and being lower a bit is just a bonus from a stance point of view.

    Agreed here. you don't have a lot of ks on your car , pretty sure the stuff on there is still very good mate, ive driven it. As Dylan says what do you want to achieve, if you are on a budget id go the sway bar to reduce the understeer. And itll cost way less in terms of install costs too. If you want the whole smash, superb handling, looks etc you have to do it all, but bang for buck with still fairly healthy suspension go the sway bar.
