Any affordable cures for the front end push?

Hey everyone,

Well this is my first FWD since I owned an '01 celica.. which seemed to have a much better balance suspension out of the box. I'm in a 2 door ex and it seems like it must be pretty nose heavy. Havent actually set it on our stock car scales to confirm that but just a huntch. In the rain its extremely frustrating trying to lay into the throttle and way before you expect it should the front end pushes like mad. The celica was quite impressive the more i think about it. Gonna snow here real soon and thatll be all the more enjoyable. Anyone know of a softer/harder front sway bar or a good tire pressure combination to cure this to some extent? Ive been tryin lots of combinations without really any gains. Im not about to buy a new set of springs for the thing.. this is really only my commutor to get back and forth to the race shop. Darn good gas millage might i add! Bout all i have to say for now. Any input is appreciated.. (even if you re-springed the car with success, what kind of spring rates?) Anyone know the stock spring rates?
