I'm always a firm believer that matching aftermarket springs (whether they are made for oem dia. or not) they are never perfectly matched.
IMO, you need damper adjustments in-order to really tune in your car, or else you're just taking a shot in the dark and the end result may not be anything you expect (IE - Harsh ride is because of the shocks not being able to damper the higher spring rates effectively)

Thanks, everything you've said is stuff I already know but call it wishful thinking. I plan to track the Z for the most part but I'm opening up to the idea of taking the 1-er to tracks that are more than 4 hours away. In that case, I'd want to keep the car stock with minimal mods (ie fixed camber plates, brake pads, tires, and maybe springs).
