Default Civic Tien spring on my GSR?

I have Tien H tech springs for an EG civic. I was planning on getting a hatchback. I am now building a GSR integra for street/road course. The Tiens are 1.2/.8" drop with a 190/129 lb spring rate. I believe the integra is 195/90. I will be using Koni yellow adjustable shock, all new bushings ect on suspension. The car will be fully gutted with a bolt in cage. I daily the car and road trip in summer. Should I get stiffer integra specific springs or use what I have? I may upgrade to a 25.4mm front bar and adjustable 22mm rear. I was also thinking of installing the rear springs on the -15mm setting so rear doesn't sit so high. Most weight has been removed from rear of the car. Should I run what I got or get stiffer springs?

Looks like I'm just going to grab the propper integra Tien H tech springs for the car next payday. These are too soft. Will just save for the next project. Thinking about getting a civic hatchback later to use everything I remove from the integra anyway.
