If you are going to put these one, which you already purchased so I'm guessing yeah, don't be cheap wna wait to have everything, it makes no sense to take everything appart 3 or 4 times. :1 :1 :1
They work pretty good if you add the parts listed below. Of course these are not competition parts but they work.
You WILL need:
Camber kit all around.
If you just put these on and slam it all the way down your tire will look like this / \ they will be ruined in about a month. It's not fun to buy tires every month, or two have one blow out doing 90 on the highway, which we all know you will be doing. You can find a now name kit on ebay for $80.
Decent Gas Shocks.
Talking about Tokico or KYB at least. Better if you get the adjustables, good enough to get the regular ones. A set of KYB GR2's should be around $60 each, maybe $250. If you don't do this, the car will suck to drive. It will bounce more than your :insert a loved one here: in bed and could damage other parts.
Of course you won't listen to me or anyone else. Honestly after spending $80-$100 on used tires every month, you would have wished you did it the right way.

Cheap coils are not going to improve you traction at the track you are going to bounce all over the place, If its for apperance then there fine but don't think they are going to help you and you are going to need a stiffer spring rate in the back to help with launching...I rock the Koni yellow and Gc 450f 600r damn stiff ride and on my crx it handles amazing and i got them used for $200 
you should have just kept your eye out for good deals...I have all top of the line stuff second hand and it is great dosen't hurt the wallet as much but still great quality and usually the good stuff has lifetime warrenty and/or are rebuildable in the case of the koni's
You still interested in my partial turbo kit?
