How are you driving the car makes a difference as well. Are you at neutral throttle by the time you reach the apex? Causing a sudden weight transfer in the middle of a corner by pouncing on the throttle is going to upset any car, stiffer suspensions are going to react more quickly as there will be less weight transfer to the drive wheels under acceleration. Very generally speaking softer suspension setups are easier to drive as the load transfer is slower and smoother, and the suspension is more compliant against mid corner bumps and less likely to upset the chassis. Advanced drivers with a balanced car are going to prefer a stiffer setup as they need everything to react more quickly. Chances are you have too much damping dialed in right now for street driving, the HKS stiffens up the rear more than the front relative to stock with 9K/9K springs. Dial it back to about 7 clicks from soft front, 5 clicks from soft rear and see how to feels. Suspension tuning is very much about driving style and personal preference so experimenting is important.
