Default Comments on my handling spec ideas

Hi all
Well the plan into repairing, upgrading and restoring my car after my bump.
Been doing lots of thinking on parts. Now I'm happy with just shy of 200bhp, the full round number would be nice but nit important, so the engine is going to be left alone apart form a good service, but that's another day.
So I wanna go to town on the handling, so here my idea and if anyone has improvements or different ideas do let me know.
Using my exciting Koni adjustable shocks,with new springs, I'v got a the mo, -40mm cut (previous owner), I really like the look, but I know its not good!
So thinking either non cut -40mm or -35mm. Any idea on whos springs?
Adjustable TCAs, either a new set from Compbrake, or the Old skool style ones I've got, kinda home jobs ones.
Rose Jointed Steering arms ends.
Adjustable top mounts
Anti roll bar, I've been thinking about using a RS16i unit, but the means different gearbox and not mage keen on doing that.
Second option some adjustable ARB for a mk4 the is very rare and cost lots, but thats all i know about it.
Third option is using the thinker ARB for a mk4 I have in my garage.
Any other options for ARB?
Full new polybush kit.
Front Strut Brace
Rear Strut Brace

Not it the rear end I have no real idea about, Some one told me about adjustable trailing arms, but I cant find anything online. Also seen on the Compbrake site a link call "ford mk4 adjustable rear wishbones" but the link don't work, so any more info on this would be good to.
Wheels will be the standard alloys with toyo tr-1s

Cheers for any help and info.
