Default Adjustable perch, 2.25" spring, CR shock?

What would your thoughts/opinions be on the following setup?

2008+ Honda S2000 OEM CR shocks
Adjustable spring perch (aka Ground Control)
Eibach 2.25" ERS springs in OEM Honda spring rates for CR.

I believe the CR spring rates are: Fr: 377 (8.6) & Rr: 264 (6.4).

That way you have some excellent shocks that are already tuned for a higher spring rate and don't need to put in the development into shock valving, you have adjustable height to lower the car about .75" and corner weigh it.

thoughts? It would be an interesting setup because in CASC Solo1 you incur performance index points for changing the shock and incur more for changing the shock. The shock since it is offered at a later year s2000 means I can incur zero performance index points to backdate/update shocks that were offered by the manufacturer. That way I only incur index points for changing the springs only.

I would then obtain the Club Racer front and rear sway bars to match.

I don't know how the heck you did your conversion but this is the actual conversion from pounds to kg.
377lb=6.7kg
264=4.7kg

I never actually did the conversion. I just copied and pasted from the s2ki "spring faq" page.
