Video would really help me help you. However, I still believe that part of the issue rests with worn out dampers and too soft springs.

Yes my old car was low especially in the rear. Always corner balanced perfect. Gotta be low in the back to get the power down and maintain chassis stability on the brakes

If you feel you are washing out he front tires after initial turn in, and you are self aware that you aren’t plowing in with too much speed/steering input, then you could try increasing your rebound dampening in the front and see if that helps. It did for me after a pro coach recommended I try it, it was counter to what I had been told “soften the front to increase front grip”. In theory it’s holding onto the compression when you load into the corner and realeasing it more gradually. So more consistent grip through the corner rather than high turn-in folled by lower mid, corner. If you try it be a touch careful with sharp throttle application at apex.
