Default 1993 Civic EX FSP suspension setup

I am currently gathering parts to do a full rebuild on my Civic's suspension to run it in FSP. I am planning on using Hardrace front upper control arms, Hardrace rear camber kit, Hardrace bushings and geniune Honda parts (bearings, tie rods). I am trying to figure out what the best setup will be for swaybars. I was thinking the stock EX front bar with new bushings and Hardrace end links and in the rear either a JDM ITR bar or an ASR 24mm either one with the ASR reinforcement kit. Would this be a good choice?

Currently I have Koni STR.T shocks and Neuspeed Street springs which are in no way suitable for this. I could use some suggestions on a good shock/coil-over setup for autocrossing. I was thinking Koni Sports and Ground Controls but given the staggering number of options for these car, what is the best setup sub $1000?

Koni Yellow Race and ground Control sleeve kit. They are valved to handle more spring rate then the Sport and are not over priced. Spring rates are going to Depend on how serious you plan on running the car. That will be something you need to play with.
Look into the ASR revolver trailing arm spherical bearing. Its made of Delron, So by the way i read the SP rules its allowed because its not a Metal.

I Currently run my 95 civic hatch in FSP, and have super cheap yonaka coilovers. with 400 front and 450 rear. 94 Integra Front bar, 19MM rear bar with ASR rear brace. I use to track the car a lot so i put Integra Brakes on it, but i am switching back to the smaller CX brakes this winter.
I also need to upgrade from my current 92WHP D15B7 to a good D16Z6 or Y8 motor.

Thanks for the advice on the ASR Revolver. I hadn't heard of that kit.

I am probably just going to run it semi-locally. Not looking for national level or anything. I would like to have it wear I don't need to trailer it to events.
