I want to order sway bars but dont wanna do front and rear and be thrown out to the wolves. Running 275 tires in the rear with 18x10.5" D.O.T. tires. not R compound. I've searched on the forum and read the SCCA rule book thoroughly but still am a bit confused. any help is great. Thanks in advance!
Yea ASP! The only two classes that are cars fall in are c-stock and asp unless you have a Nismo then you would be in b-stock. If you wanted to run c- stock you would have to remove the springs, test pipes and intake. You can only have 1 sway bar also in c-stock. Remember you can not get magnetic numbers if you plan on putting them on the doors. The doors and the hood are aluminum.

Actually the non-Nismo's can now run in STR assuming legal modifications. Here's the link to the change.

SCCA Fasttrack

#9283 370Z Classing Proposal
Per the STAC, this is addressed by two separate Tech Bulletins:
1) Add to STR: ‘09-’12 Nissan 370Z (except NISMO)
2) Clarifiy 14.4 by adding: “Standard equipment wheels exceeding these maximums are not permitted.”

Hey Gomer...are they changing the limitation on tire width as well. Last year STR was limited to 255mm and wheel widths were restricted too.

This came out of my request to have the 370Z classed in STU. I failed to mention the Nismo in my letter. Even the base model 18" wheels are too wide to be allowed in the STR class.

I could not find the publications for the above mentioned tech bulletins in the past year and the recently published 2013 solo rules doesn't [yet] reflect it.

I thought 9" was allowed in the STU class? Am i mistaken?
