Might be a dirty oxygen sensor. Is this 323 an around town, short runs type
of use vehicle? If so take it for a hard run on a country road.

The first thing I would do is get some xylene carburettor/fuel injection
cleaner and flush out the throttle body and idle air valve. You may
need to adjust base idle afterwards, since this will remove 9 years of gunk.

Don't clean off the black ring around the edge of the throttle butterfly
itself, since some of this is factory sealant.

I tried some possibilities ( etc.) but with no success.

Rather common and usually pretty easy to fix. Pick up a spray can of
throttle cleaner at parts store and follow the directions on the can. A
small amount of dirty or oily residue/gunk in the throttle body really
affects your idle. Also consider having your fuel injectors cleaned, but try
the throttle body cleaning first. Both operations will raise your gas
mileage.
