youll be in SM (street modified)

what other mods do you have... do you still have an interior?

fastboy559

yes still have an interior im assuming u needd full interior for that class?

shifty35

You have to have full interior for SM, but you can remove the backseat.

All the carpet and paneling should still be there, including in the hatch.

ok thanks so only thing i can remove is rear seat and is a driver racing bucket seat allowed and r roll center ajusters allowed ....thanks guys for all the help

shifty35

Roll center adjusters are allowed in SM, racing seat is allowed.

3pt front strut bars are not allowed, or things like trunk X braces, anything with a triangulating bar. Only allowed to connect opposite suspension points, like front upper to front upper, rear upper to rear upper.

But a full roll cage is allowed.

Also, the carpet that is attached to the back of the rear seat can be removed. You may also remove the rear seatbelts, and if you put racing belts in for the front seats, you can remove the OEM belts there as well.

Anybody know someone selling a Password JDM front upper 2 point strut bar for an EF? I need one. Otherwise, I'm buying a used 3 point and cutting off the portion that goes up to the firewall.

ok thanks alot guys does anyone have a scamatic of the cage allowed and what it needs to have

lowside67

It's in the rulebook. You can run either a full cage or a roll bar, either of which is probably useless for autocross and will just slow you down because of the weight. But lots of us run our cars at track events as well and run a rollbar for that purpose.

fastboy559

yea i wanted to run mine at the track to what kind of cage is needed for that

rmcdaniels

Cage specs are in the rules, read appendix C. Some companies, like Autopower, make bolt-in roll bars/cages that are compliant with the Solo rules. For a daily driven car, I'd avoid a full cage and run a roll bar. If you use racing seats, then you must have a roll bar or cage, and if you have a roll bar/cage, then you must have a 5/6/7 point harness. For time trials you must have a bar or cage, plus certified seat and harness. For a HPDE, or anything with an instructor, the passenger must have the same type of safety equipment as the driver.
