First of all, if you have no previous performance driving or motorsports under your belt, you will not come to grips with the car after a single autocross. It takes most people years to actually come close to the true limits of their hardware.
But even then, your plan after you've "learned" the car is to radically change the suspension? The car is going to be so different that very little of what you've learned about its behavior is going to matter.
Look, if you just want to have fun with cars, great! Go install shit and have fun, and don't listen to people who are telling you that you're doing it wrong. But if you actually want to learn how to drive for real, you need tons of seat time in a car that doesn't change at all for several events. I recommend you reexamine your priorities and decide which is most important to you.
