tbh you dont want to stiff a spring on standard shocks!
dino is selling a set of nearly new coilovers for £450, bargin! will also mean you can corner weight your car aswell

lowering springs on stock shocks on track will be a fun time
stick with stock shocks and springs till you have saved the cash for a set of real shocks. you will throw more cash at it all in the end otherwise....

All too easy to fall into the trap of trying to modify a car on the cheap & it actually performing worse than the stock offering from Mr Honda!
Cheap aftermarket stuff is invariably not up to the job
