Long confusing story but paying for the events isn't an issue. I'm only on a budget for mods.

In all honesty, i think you should keep the stock suspension for a few events to learn the car, then upgrade things as they become limiting factors. i can say from experience, however, that you'll be surprised how much difference a new rear sway bar can make, and it wouldn't be a bad idea to get one.

First upgrades should be the brakes. it doesn't matter how fast you can get the car going if you can't stop it. you need higher temp brake fluid, brake pads, and SS lines. Brake ducts would also be a good idea, but not necessary.
Thanks for the advice.
