does nismo s-tune stuff bump you out of CS in autox?

problem is, nationals are so close to me, if i get a decent set of tires i might just go. Compared to the wrx, this car suits me a lot

problem is, nationals are so close to me, if i get a decent set of tires i might just go. Compared to the wrx, this car suits me a lot better, and a few pros have told me with some more practice i could actually be pretty good. So, now i'm trying to find what works to my advantage and drive my best, because unlike the wrx this car is very very well classed!

Except for ASP classing.

WRX is an ESP car...where it is basically THE car to have...unless your talking about a newer WRX (07+) then ya...good luck.

But, as for the those parts. At regional events a lot gets overlooked. But word has a way of making it to your competitors at national level. So be careful.
