Recommendations for Suspension Mods

Let me preface this post by saying I don't know much about suspensions...

My 2015 BRZ with AT is my daily driver. I'm going to start auto crossing it on the weekends, and need some advice on what mods I should make to my suspension, such as roll bars, coilovers, springs, shocks, etc..

Here's my goal: I'd like a solution that's adjustable, so that I can keep the car raised and the suspension soft (as close to OEM as possible for comfort, and so I can pull into my driveway without scraping the nose), but when I get to the track, I can adjust the "suspension" to lower it and firm it up for performance. I realize having this requirement might mean a compromise in performance. But, I drive my car on the street 99% of the time, so I'm willing to forgo a little performance in that 1% of my driving time in exchange for some comfort in the other 99%.

At present, I'm still running my stock wheels, and will probably continue to do so for awhile. In the future, I will upgrade to larger diameter and width wheels, most likely 18x8.5 minimum. When that day comes, I might continue to use the OEM wheels when autox-ing. I also plan to upgrade the brakes at some point.

Any auto crosser's out there with advice for a Novice?
