Better Engines mounts.

I've heard good things about Mono Flex.

But i really dont like rattles in the car it get on my nerves and getting solid engine mounts will drive me nuts. Unless there is a semi hard compond one that helps stop wheel hop but maintains cabin comfort

Get some traction bars. They eliminate wheel hop and because its not attached to your engine, there will be no cabin vibration.

These are my ones i ordered for my K series swap. I'm pretty sure they make it for the rsx models aswell, but i could be wrong.

I ordered mine directly from the states. www.Full-race.com (http://full-race.com)

As I said though, Full-race might not make them for the dc5, but other companies might.
