Long Answer
Since you are not doing a full race setup I would strongly suggest that you use Koni "yellow" Sport series shocks. They are Rebound adjustable and very comfortable on the road. Easy to set for track/autox events. As to springs, be warned that "race" versions are quite stiff and will drop the car around 2.25" (at least that is true for Neuspeed). You may want to consider Neuspeed Sport springs as they are very good for dual use. Stiffer than stock, but a progressive rate. Additionally you will not be as low.
As to changing perch settings-the Koni yellow shock is generally set one time and that is it. Mine are front-upper and rear-middle with Neuspeed Sport springs. The car handles very well and with the Neuspeed rear sway bar turns very tight. My ride is a 5th gen Base. You should also consider upper tower bars to stiffen the chassis a bit more. (You do not need one for the rear lower on a 5th gen IMO)
One last thing-for any drop - you must get the car aligned. Get the printout and see where your settings are. It is very possible (1" produces -0.75 degrees of Camber change from stock) you will need Camber kits.
