On thing to consider - you were proposing changing shock fluid, shock spring, side dampening fluid and side spring? Make sure and do these ONE AT A TIME. Otherwise, you have no idea which adjustment had the desired handling change. Start with the dampening fluid as VaFactor recommends and probably about a 90% chance you won't need to touch the other setup changes you proposed.
On this car, it seems that when I change one thing at a time I wind up instantly changing it back. I'm going up on the dampener fluid to the CRC "white" (the thickest I own, but I can get some diff lube from the Short Bus Truck racers at my track as needed) and softening the side springs in one step, hopefully that will help it out, then I will play with the center shock or the front springs.
