You should do NOTHING to the car's safety systems until you have a good deal of track experience. Stock seats, restraints and airbags. Your skill level is below the car's capabilities, so no parts other than a set of brake pads will be required for you to make the most of your track time. Once your skill level comes up you'll know WHY you need things, not just that all the cool kids on facebook all like these mad tyte seats yo.

Don't ask us. We're not authorities on this stuff. Find out what shops near you prep cars for heavy track use and go talk to them.

Also, be aware that harnesses and a lot of other safety gear has an expiration date. Don't think that the stuff you buy is going to keep you safe for the life of the car.
