IRS for a 1200 coupe

I'm pretty sick of the rear end of my coupe constantly letting me down around badly surfaced bends.
I've noted some unusual leaf setups some of you have that help but ultimately that big live axel just kicks the back end right out of track over anything but smooth concrete. I've done some searching on this websight but havent found anything about Independant Rear Suspension conversions.
I've seen pictures of a wagon modded with IRS on the web but buggered if i can find it again.
It'd be a huge task especially with the under boot tank but what dividends it would reap!
Has anyone ever investigated this option? Can anyone tell me what sort of dramas i'd need to consider before embarking on this level of engineering madness.
Can anyone point me in the direction of the websight with pics of the red wagon with IRS?

Currently i run a 120Y borgwarner (sedan i think) with 120Y leaves and pretty hard pedders.
Prior to this i had soft original coupe leaves. The wagon leaves eliminated the previous tramp issues but did nothing to aleviate the massive kick in the rear end i cop when hitting bumps, nor the sideways kick i cop on bends with potholes.
All advice/comments would be welcomed
