BRZ STX Car Setup For A Newbie

I'm new to the sport and have been loving it! I have done about 6 events this year and I did the evolution driving school phase one. I have a few questions about setting up my car for events and during events.

Car and mods

2014 subaru brz

-KW V3 coilovers

-enkei rpf1's 17X9 all around

-Bridgestone RE11a's

-I have a "street friendly" alinement



What I want to know is how stiff should I make the front and rear and what tire pressures to run

So far I have ran 33psi front and 30psi rear and the car on a warmer day has really liked that setup on colder days it slides more than I would like (also less grip do to temps)

I have kept the coil overs almost the same as they are for the break in period but I went 2 clicks stiffer in front and 2 clicks softer in the rear.The cars feels better but I feel like I could do better.

Also what should I be looking for like feedback from the car?
