Hell run what you've brung! This is all just about evo bragging rights. I'm not sure who i have my money on at the moment. Justin as the experience on the track, Mike has the coilovers and good tires and wheels. And Dave, Frank, and Dan have the power. Hmmmm, this will be exciting to see.

yeah, just the regular ride springs, the front is just slightly lower and the the rear. by .1 of an inch.

camber plates aren't require, but they sure are a bonus.

i'm not sure how much the drop alone would effect camber, but i don't think that much. after my alignment, my camber plates are pretty close to centered and that is giving me about - 9/10's of a degree up front. so i don't think it would be too hard to correct with the stock top hats.

i also flipped around the eccentric bolt on the bottom of the strut to give me an extra degree of negatice camber. so if there was a potential issue, i would imagaine you could always just leave that bolt facing the normal way to compensate.
