HI,

what are the handling mods i can do to make the car handle better?

It would help if we knew which model you have

POLY bushes is a good thing for all cars.
Then it depends on what you are looking for and budget, if road use a nice set of KONI adjustables and springs work VERY well.
You can of course go coilovers, more money but better results if you do track days as well ?
Add in strut brace front and rear, adjustable TCA's, tie rods, etc etc, roll cage to stiffen car, thicker/stiffer roll bars, need more details, this is just a few examples there are many depending on use ?
The suspension needs to be tailored to your intended use and budget.

i would want the ultimate handling without compromising much on daily comfort.

welded in cage turret to turret and through the dash etc
seam welded all round
coil overs
them bars that rainbirds got on his motor

a ew things to try out cost wise first

The two do not go hand in hand, everything is a compromise.
You would be best off trying to get a ride in several cars with different suspension types first to see what you like.

Probably best route then is to go for koni's with ahmed bayjoo springs as many on here will tell you that is the best combination available unless coilovers which can be harsh for daily use.
Then a good quality strut brace across the front and if you put one in the rear it will need to tie to the boot floor or will defeat the object it being there.
You could also (if you have a 2wd) change the rear anti -roll bar for either a saph 4x4 one or next step a escos one.
Then after all the above the next step is adjustable front track control arms and new rear arms with rose joints for adjustability ,
then finally a full set up of all the castor and toe and camber if possible
Then it should handle sweet
if anyone wants to add or correct me on anything please do as i have probably missed something.

I personally don't like polybushes...i'd much sooner fit brand new standard bushes to a Sierra.

As said above Koni's with Ahmed springs are good, they keep the ride comfortable whilst actually improving the handling.
Some adjustable TCA's on the front with adjustable top mounts will allow the camber/toe/castor to be set.

that's about as far as most go on the front.

For the rear you should look at a 6degree rear beam, these come with adjustable rose joints and improved pick up points, meaning you can set the camber/toe perfectly, without it changing with suspension travel.
a bladed anti roll bar is a good upgrade too.

Chassis bars apparently stiffen the sheel up quite a lot, i've never tried them myself though.

of course good tyres will help massively, along with an uprated Diff.

there is so much you can do really.
