Folks, what is a good spring/shock combo for mild drop (< 2") that would be suitable for some daily driver and 1/2 HPDE days a year?

Thanks.

eibach works well on the regular civics, not sure on the hatch
koni or KYB (upper range) does wonders

I am looking at Eibach Prokit and Konis, but confused by the two options on TR.

Anyone know which Konis are the right part? Also, for such a mild drop, ~ 1", is there need of a camber kit? If so, what do you recommend? Thanks.

i ran autoX without the camber kits, and the lack of front camber, plus the rear getting into the -1.5 made the car extremely understeering in autoX tight cornerings.
ended up damaging my 2nd gear synchros (excessive wheel spin for 2 years autoX).

correcting the rear camber was a lot more important than getting more front camber.

since correcting the rear camber, car rotates much happier (-1.5 front, -0.5 rear), no front anti-roll bar and progress rear anti-roll bar the car is much happier to turn.

the hatch is a little tail happier than the coupe, so maybe keep stock front anti-roll bar? not sure about the rear bar that would work.
