Well, welcome to the FRS/BRZ platform and forum that is not NASIOC.

One sway bar, wheels have to be OEM width and +/-1" diameter, but any 200 tread wear your you can fit (235 is about the max and tire rack will call to make sure you know what you are doing before they'll mount those). A drop in filter, shocks but not springs, cat back, and OEM camber bolts are the only other allowed mods.

New dampers probably aren't absolutely necessary and if you do them the Koni yellows are what most people run.

The tires are a must if you are looking to be competitive and to learn the pedal dance. Pedal Dance just turns all the nannies off. Its more beneficial for track use but I like it off for AutoX. The dance can be explained in person before you run, its like the Konami code but for your car.

I can't decide between 215/45 RS3 or 235/40 Z2SS? The RS3's are WAY cheaper, but the Z2SS will have much more lateral grip.

I went with 235/45 z2 (regular, not star spec which saved $100).

I don't think there is a huge difference between the top tier tires and the popular sizes.

It sounds like most people will be running in CS, or at least the guys that moved from the WRX's in STU are planning for CS.

Ill be out of novice next year and running STX.

14stu · 12-17-2014, 01:50 PM

C street is the what everybody said they are running. STX would allow you to reuse wheels and tires, but eventually you'd spend more for all the other mods (and decrease the amount of stuff covered by the warranty).

We should order our crash bolts together so we don't each have to pay shipping and handling (bolts are $10 s&h is $12).

I think there are more twins running in STX at the SCCA events. Equipe seems to be a more event mix

There are only 3 or 4 of us in STX for SCCA events most run in CS. 3 others run in CSP.

Man I just need to get on an autox course asap!!!

14stu · 12-17-2014, 04:59 PM

My wheels and tires came in today, 3 sets for one car seems a little excessive but not overly so.
