Ok so ive been reading up on the forum (very nice by the way ;) ) Ive narrowed it down to a few choices on what im going to get for my nsx. Theese are my three options that I am debating on.

1. Tein coil over set up
2. Zenardi upgrades
3. Bilstein shocks, new bushings, front sway bar and comptech strut bar.

Im going to do a little more research and start deciding what I want. With tein I know I get more adjustability then I will ever need. Im still debating it.

The zenardi upgrades I know very little about and I heard that the springs will give you camber and thats something I dont want to deal with. I am thinking about putting 17 or 18 inch wheels on it and I dont want wheel gap I want to try and maintain it to stock clearance as possible with out getting into camber.

The bilstein shock and misc upgrades seem like the best bang for the buck and gives me everything I want but I guess we will have to see

Well if you are talking "track" set-up, and you are complaining about neg camber, you need to define "your" track. In all except drag racing (which I do not call a track) negative camber is your friend. And if you don't "want to deal with it", you need a new hobby.

maybee i should rephrase I dont want to deal with premature tire wear
 
The Zanardi,or type S springs work well with the Koni yellow single adjustable shocks and only lower the car 6/10 of an inch so I don't know why you said it would screw up your camber.The HR springs lower the car 1.5 in and that requires more severe - camber.We have 3 cars in the NE region running this settup.Add some sway bars and have fun.Once you get some seat time then change out your rear rubber bushings for noncompliance pieces,and then you might appreciate the lack off the rear wiggle that is unwanted toe changes as the susp works at the limmits.

and what exactly do you call what's going to happen to those tires (and brake pads and brakes and...) going around a track ?

well how Ive always done it is this way. I have my regular street rims with tires on my car. those are the wheels I roll on for every day use. when ever I auto x or go to some kind of event I just put my stock rims back on and I have those wheels for that.
