I think a n/a ng 900 is a very good car to start with. The nice torquey 2.3 will shine on tight auto-x course, better than a stock turbo.
The first thing you should do is lighten the car as much as possibly can, you may want to remove the back seats and spare etc when you go to an event. The next step would a stiffer anti roll bar, which is less than 100 bucks from some of the site sponsors. Then So sticky tires on lightwheels, go with some 15's unless you are planning a brake upgrade. Those mods would be enough to make you competitive.
