Anyone consider swapping to the FRS springs to get the rear end a little looser? Im swapping to konis and have a set of extra FRS springs. Might be worth a try?

You could do that, but then you would be in STX. You would also want to swap to the softer front springs to make much of a difference.
I've driven both cars and it's not worth the trouble. |

If you swap front and rear, whats the difference between the FRS 10 series and a BRZ limited?

Does anyone know if the Series 1.0 would qualify as C-Street legal? I see the TRD lowering springs and wonder....

Given the spring changes the RS1.0 will likely be classified separately and not in CS. I'd suspect BS.

Youre right, I thought Appendix A had years in it (i.e. 2013-2014), but it doesnt.

The SCCA is scared of special edition cars, it will end up in BS where it won't be competitive.

They don't want a relatively rare car (1500 units) to be an overdog, I can appreciate that. Though we're so far down on the 370Z, I don't think it matters.

How big of a deal would it be to use 7.5 rims vs 7.0 with 225 tires? Or should I not even bother doing this with scca since its not allowed.
