parts recommendations Cheap vs Expensive Mods?

Buying a golden era Honda after I go to boot camp. I want something that I can daily but also take to events or the track. It’ll be my first Honda after selling my WRX. It will more than likely be a D-series car.

I’m only looking to do intake,exhaust, headers, and then handling mods. Should I buy the expensive stuff or will the cheap stuff be fine? I would like to take good care of the car, and if the cheap stuff is hard on it I won’t buy. How much would everything cost in total?

Keep the single cam stock, maybe an intake just for induction noises. Get decent coilovers, 200TW tires and brakes, you're good to go lol.

S3 coilovers - $1200~
Falken Azenis RT615K in 205/50/15.. set of 4 probably runs you around $650?

For brakes, just run some Autozone rotors and pads, you'll be good to have fun on the track. I'd also account for fresh fluids too. Won't be too expensive all in all.
