need help with suspension

hey, i just got a used 04 g35 about 4 days ago and i finally drove it hard today on the freeway and i felt that the car was REALLY heavy and i wasnt too comfortable with it. like switching lanes and turning at high speeds. well my big question is what i can do to make it feel lighter, or like help me feel more in control of the car. i know this car is great and i think ALOT of me feeling this way is because i got into a G35 from an S2000. that thing handled like a beast. but yeah is there anything i can do? thanks. oh and btw, i am really glad i got into the G35. =] very nice car.

a set of sways will help with the body roll that makes the car feel heavy or floaty at high speeds, and will keep the body flat in hard turns. Some Stance coilovers would also help improve your handling greatly.

What kind of tires are on the car? For handling, number one priority is tires. Then comes the struts, sway bars, then springs.
