not sure what tires you plan to run your first year, but you will not enjoy yourself on R comps without the added camber. Buying camber plates would be a waste imho.

Get yourself the GT3 arms. I'm personally very pleased with the Feal coilovers I run. You can set them up with whatever spring rate you like and while not MCS or Ohlins level quality, for my car, I'm more than happy at the $1700 I paid.

The rear of the car has more than enough camber adjustment as is, so I wouldn't buy adjustable rear plates. if you lower the car though, you will need adjustable toe links. I went megan racing and they are fine for the price.

So for $3600, I would do the following:

Feal road race coilovers (they come with front and rear camber plates). 550lb front, 600 rear springs $1,700
GT3 front control arms. $1200 or so all in
Adjustable rear Toe link: $200 to $400
New meyle control arms rear and new thrust arms all around $500

With a good alignment, that will be all you need to do serious work on the street or track. Ride will be firm but not hateful.

2nd year, I'd add some adjustable tarret swaybars and better endlinks
