Haven't seen a lot about ice mode lately. I never get it (I do not left-foot brake). My codriver, who LFBs, can get it almost every other run (he is trying to relearn to drive with just one foot now). Any LFB'ers out there that are running into this issue?

since it comes with TRD lowering springs... does it mean, if my non-R.S. model uses the same set of springs, i will still stay in stock class? or into STX?
Also, IF the RS does get classed in C-Street, ONLY 2014 base twins can package convert, and package convert does not mean only the springs. Everything different about the RS would need to be done to the base 2014.

What this will mean is new aero for STX likely.

I wouldn't worry about the the RS series but it seems like worrying is popular here.

There is no UD/BD in ST either so only 2014's could add the extra weight.

Heres one for the crowd, when you hit the limiter, is it bouncing off it or does it cut fuel? Mine bounces twice and then cuts fuel. Does pedal dance fix this?

I believe it still fuel cuts. Pedal dance just disables aids except ABS

Unless Toyoboru updates a 2013 accessories catalog that includes the RS aero...

Hey guys,

Relatively new to the AutoX world, I've done a few events so far, and I'm completely hooked. I pulled a noob mistake and bought 17x9 RPF1's and bumped myself into STX immediately, so I'm running Novice this year and plan on having my car completely prepped by the end of the season.

After driving my friend's STi with a lightweight flywheel and clutch, I fell in love, but I can't seem to find any solid info on whether or not I can actually run a lighter flywheel or better clutch in STX. I don't even know where to look for specific rulings; whenever I see anyone quote rulings, I can't seem to find where they are.

Any help on this would be greatly appreciated. If I can't run a lighter flywheel, I'd rather have my heart crushed now, as opposed to taking the time to install it, and show up to an event to find out it isn't legal.

EDIT: After re-reading the OP, I see that transmission changes cannot be done. So I'm guessing this rules out what I was hoping to do...

Yes, quick answer is no. There's also really no *need* to with STX levels of power and tires.

I was looking In to getting LCA's to help correct some of the rear camber added from lowering . From the question previous I see most are running +/- 2.0 . I autocross at least once a month, should I even bother at this time?
