What do you mean by full conversion? I meant buy an actual tS. Did the tS get disallowed from STX?

Can you explain a full conversion, and how to ensure you convert it properly? ex. you need XYZ and dont need ABC from a standard brz to a TS

Full conversion = full conversion. It's easier and smarter to just buy a ts if you want the aero (which doesn't do anything at autocross anyway)

In both Street and Street Touring, the rule is that you can convert a car from one spec to another if you do *all* the changes. So if you want package B and it includes an aero kit, springs, seats, and a giant subwoofer then you have to install all of those parts, not just the bits you like. If you want to mix and match, then it's time to move to Street Prepared, which allows update/backdate of any individual part from the same line in the class listing.

If you're serious about an XSA car I think you'll dump $10k+ into the engine, you'll want to push >350whp methinks, which will eat trannys. You'll be playing on 295-315 wide tires so you're not saving much on tires even though they're 200tw.
Does LPSP allow update backdate? I'd go play in DSP if cost was a concern, the car makes good power on E85 and not cutting the fenders should keep you on <275 tires. A 315/30/18 BFG is more expensive than a 275/35/17 A7. But if competitiveness isn't a priority play with whatever tires make you happy. |

Totes. What's even more stupid is that TT Touring Classes can't benefit from Aero yet they want to drift away from Solo type rule classing to allow tuning in the lowest form of prep level there is to offer. But that's a soapbox for another day

not to split hairs but youd be in XS B since removing the spare would drop you below the 2750lb limit of A |
