I'll be in DC for the CS torquelessfest or I would. :-)

I'm sure I'll make it out to a few though. I'm already register for the team challenge.

Nice! Sounds good, GL in DC. That's one I have not made it out to yet.

Wazzup you Motor City madmen!

I was just poking around on here looking for setup advice for my FR-S which will be home next week and ran into y'all.

I'm in Texas now, but it is reassuring reading info from people I have met before.

This heat is driving me crazy, but at least I'll be able to autocross in January now.

Cheers!

I'm a noob this year, can you confirm your setup is CS legal?

edit: Specifically the dampers and exhaust work.

I'm not the owner of this car, but everything in the OP looks legit for CS.

Was there something specific you had in question?

The only thing I was unsure of was the seatbelts, but after reading the current rules, it looks like they are allowed if the correct installation is used.

The wheels are open because the width is indeterminable by the description. So if they are not 7" wide wheels, then yes, this car would not be valid in CS.

Yup, all legal. Wheels are 17x7 ET+42

Dampers are allowed as long as the spring seats maintain the OE ride height and have near-OE travel within the specified limit and limited to 2 adjustable settings maximum. The exhaust is only an axle-back, you are allowed to replace anything downstream of the last cat converter as long as it exits in at least 1 of the OE exit locations (allows you to do a single-exit exhaust). Cat-backs are also legal

C-Street BRZ 192 Build Info

Preparing for tomorrow when both local regions have their season openers. I'll be heading to NWOR at Perrysburg, OH. I'm installing the stock wheels with 235/40 ZIIs since it's one of the smaller lots I'll be competing at this year. Won't bother bringing the 235/45. I expect to take out damping compared to the TNT setup based on unsealed asphalt lot and the smaller tires proving less willing on corner entry. We'll see how it goes... Also elected to run open class for a few reasons rather than pro. One being the indexes for street are proving to be asinine so far this year, and the other being I'm anticipating CS will be running early heats all season, so more practice on a dirty course will be benificial over pro class which typically runs late in the day.
