what u have to do to make a thirdgen take corners better and make it so she wont really lean to much on tight ones?
do u just need diffrence springs and shocks to make a good diffrence and stop the leaning.? she dont lean much now, but i want better still.

also i notice when i make a left turn/cruv/bend in road at higher speeds i can like hear the tire spinning like a deep humming sound untill u straten out or turn other way.
whats the deal on this??

sub frame connectors, every car should have them. good shocks and struts, springs, sway bars, wonder bar, panhard bar, control arms, torque arm, polyurethane bushings, tubular k member, front control arms

Left wheel bearing, or tire. Next time u have the front wheels in the air, check end play from top to bottom on the tire, if there is any, it's the bearing. Replace it asap.

Also, if you can't afford ALL of the things Kag suggested, I would reccomend minimal the TDS wonderbar, possibly the edelbrock STB, and new swaybar end links and bushings front and rear. All of that will make a drastic improvement, and minus the $180 STB, u'r only lookin at $80-$100 for all the rest combined.

before you open youself up to TONS of suggestions, and multi thousands of dollars worth of parts... what kind of budget are you looking at, and can i assume this is for a mainly street driven car?

I had exactly the same thing on my 98 grand am a while back. Took it to the dealer and they told me it was the ball joint. I really don't know why bad ball joint would do this kind of noise, but car was repaired under manufacturer warranty and the noise did go away.
