^^ I will be going S Techs probably next year. I went with the Z/G combo strictly because I did not want to installl a camber kit at this time with my S Techs.

The above statement is probably somewhat correct, but personally I wouldn't install S Techs without a camber kit.

You will eventually need to change out the shocks due to premature wear caused by lowering the car. The OEM shocks are not meant to run on lowered cars as it adds more stress to the valve body...more up/down traveling = premature wear.

Adding a camber kit isn't so much to achieve "best performance" but to keep your tires alive. It allows you to get back into or close to OEM spec to prevent premature wear on your tires.

You've got to pay to play
