Default Time for a change? (suspension)

I have Eibach Sportlines and Koni Yellows on my CRX that are about 4 years old. I am not sure what settings the shocks are at right now, but nothing more that half set. Whenever I go for some spirited driving, the car seems really bouncy and not very confidence inspiring, and its hard to drive the car to its full potential. I was thinking that maybe changing over to some H&R or Neuspeed race springs might change it a little, not so bouncy with a better feel. Whenever i autocross the car, ppl tell me its not very stiff, but it seems to bounce up over bumps like it rides really stiff, so i dont know. Also, its a DX thus it has no sway bars. would getting them help in any way? i have no trouble getting the rear end out. thanks guys.

you are most likely hitting your bumpstops, thus the bouncing. the sportlines lower the car too much and don't support it with enough spring rate.
