Okay, we have talked a lot about H&R Springs and stock shocks, but I really haven't seen anything or anybody saying that this setup works good.

Basically, will this setup (H&R Sport/Race Springs & stock shocks)work okay? Please advise.

If so, I plan to buy my H&R springs here: http://www.inlinefour.com/

I know I should probably get new high performance shocks to go with these springs, but I can't see paying that much for them right now and I would like to milk my stock shocks for all their worth.

These stock shocks seem way better than the previous generation. I say you'll be good for about 30k miles and then you'll need new shocks. You could always install them and then check at every engine oil change for any oil leaking from the shocks.

Thanks bro, I was going to PM you about your spring/shock setup. I'm with you about finding shocks made especially for our cars.
