Suspension on AE82

Hey, I've been thinking of changing the suspension of the '82, I just figured I'd get some comments first.
I basically have a couple of options.
Save up and get the off-the-shelf whiteline kit which sounds pretty good in the article here .
OR, stick with the frankly, pretty damn good suspension I have and get a big fat rear sway bar.
Reason being, understeer scares the shit out of me and I had a big moment recently that I never want to repeat. I prefer my cars, fwd or not to wag the ass under heavy brakes/cornering. (my old civic was my best drifter - no handbrake) I find it more controllable and to me it's safer to spin than it is to plow into a wall without any hope of recovery.
I was thinking, the whiteline kit has a max of 22mm bar, and that gives fairly neutral handling. So, a 24mm adjustable bar (adjustments of ~22-26mm) sounds good for what I'd like.
There's always the option of upgrading to the whiteline kit after that, so I'm tempted to see how it goes.
Where would I get a custom sway bar made in adelaide and what'd be the ballpark cost?
Any comments appreciated.
