TRD Sportivo suspension installed!
After all this balljoint talk, I went ahead and got them replaced - along with swaybar endlinks, TRD LCA bushings and TRD Sportivo suspension. Ride is pretty good - a little sporty for a luxury car, but definitely worth the reduction in that unsettling floating around corners.
Turn in response is definitely much sharper than before. I find myself turning too much too quickly at roundabouts now because I was used to the car having to roll.
This is what it looked like before
Now (better photos coming this weekend):

thanks ... the car's 11 years old, so there's quite a few problems on the list right now. I had a misfiring problem that started about 2 weeks ago, so I had the spark plugs replaced when i did the suspension and it turns out its running lean. One of them was so bad the tip was missing. It runs way better with new plugs now though
So I guess before I can really afford to play with it, i gotta address fuel delivery .. maybe fuel pump, injectors and new fuel filter, and my rad looks like its going to go soon, so I'll be ordering a Koyo.
After that ... 3.76 LSD, then maybe BPU in the future
