If you just throw a bunch of expensive parts down there the result , if not done with a substantial amount of care in selection ,could be rather ....well ....dangerous.
this is the very reason manufactured "matched sets " of springs and dampers will allways be an excellent default route to take if you dont want to learn the considerable amount of tech that goes with this kind of thing.
as Naz says and I agree, it will change the characteristics of the cars handling....idealy you would be looking for a good balance in your suspension rather than a roll call of expensive parts ...
just some more food for thought...
