To a certain extent you will not get back to the RFT feel. Only a few tires have sidewalls close to that stiffness. RE070 comes to mind as extra stiff, but those are specialty tires for certain OEMs only, not available in useful sizes for us for the most part. (OEM for older STIs an the GT-R)
As others mentioned, you can swap out bushings to add stiffness back into the suspension system.

I just switched from RFT's to Michelin A/S 3's and I lost very little steering feel and response. I do run them at 36 psi though.
