just sleeved coilovers no new shocks. Stock Shocks i know are probably blown but it's not causing me no real problem besides the bounciness every now and then. But people still tell me it's pretty smooth for just sleeved coilvers.

Yup it's okay except for the fact that it's bouncy that's about it. Bad Part=bouncy.

Actually there's other badd things. Blown shocks means bouncing which means no good traction means risk of losing control of car.

1)Will the tires rub if i get the race springs or sport springs?
-depends on tire size/offset and alignment. I had the race with 215-40-18s and it didnt rub at all. But then I had negative camber in the rear
2)Will i need to buy a camber kit?
-I would most definitely recommend them even with sports. I learned the hard way. 18s arent cheap it sucks when you have to buy $500 tires every year and a half.
3)Will i need to buy a front strut bar?
-if you want but it really has nothing to do with dropping the car
