Icon7 Blasphemous Dope Fiend Whip

*If this isn't the correct sub forum, mods please move it*

So, I just moved from Maine to Hawaii. Bought a DA9 Integra to daily drive with hopes to do some racing, but Hawaii doesn't have a asphalt track anymore -_-.. The only fun it seems I can have is at the local dirt track (RallyX), doing Autox, or hitting up the local mountain pass (mt. tantalus) on weekends.. Let it be known I'm poor as F, so i can't exactly afford to buy a fancy set of coilovers or some actual decent tires..

I'm looking for "upgrades" and set ups that you guys can recommend.. I've been into drifting for some years now so i understand a conservative amount about setting up a car, but making an FF grip is something unknown to me..

My Current itinerary:
Urethane the motor mounts/tranny insulator
Re-adjusting the valves
Seat Harness
Figuring out a Shock/Strut (or something that can switch between asphalt and dirt)
Timing Belt kit

Anything else you dudes think I could use?

i have tien coil-overs on my DA9 and i love them. i can set the dampening and the height of my ride in just minutes.

I have the energy suspension motor mounts and i'm not really happy with the vibe in the car at idle. also the kit only come with the inserts for the front and rear mounts but with a little trimming the rear mount for the Automatic trans fits in the drivers side mount.

i'm guessing by seat harness you mean 5 point safty harness not wireing as their is only 2 wires in the seats.
