1. not sure, ask the shop.

2. To lower it alot, it is best to get short shocks to keep the springs captive. If you only lower it abit, standard height shocks are ok.

3. To make it handle better as a daily driver, you don't need to lower it at all. If you do lower it, its capasity as a daily driver will be slightly worse, because you will bottom out and hit stuff.

4. The stock T-18 bar should be ok, and measure the different front ones. Maybe the T-18 with the rear one has a bigger front one as well. Use both. Then get stiffer springs if you want to further control body roll.

5. To get the car to turn in when racing ( to not understeer), you could try and get some negative camber, maybe -1.5 degrees, or even -0.5 degrees. with either longer control arms or adjustable strut tops. Then increase the caster as well.
