Street Mod!
The trick with autocrossing (assuming you want to have a chance of winning) is to choose a class (based on budget, practicality, etc.) and build your car to that classes rules. Modifying the car then going backwards often times puts you in places you don't wanna be.

Shocks/springs - ok for all classes except stock
Intake/high flow cat/header/exhuast - ok for Street Prepared, Prepared, STS, STX, and Street Mod
MSD ignition - Ok for Street Prepared, Prepared, and Street Mod
Aftermarket clutch/flywheel - don't remember if it's legal for SP, but legal for Street Mod
A transmission from another car with lsd - legal in Street Mod
larger Sway and strut bars - ok for SP, P, STS, STX, and SM
and maybe after market cams - ok for Street mod
Problem with going with Street Mod people are going to the limits of the rules. $2000 wheels, DOT racing tires, big brake kits, AWD, and turboed to the extreme.

When you say trans from another car, what do you mean? a Type R? If it is, then you hav eot go to SM, but if it is out of another GS-R that had an LSD added, then you can run SP. everything else you mentioned is leagel for SP except the cams. Must run stock cams in SP.

high flow cat is NOT allowed in street touring. it is allowed in stx, and stx will also allow you to run a stock tranny with an lsd added. clutch and flywheel are allowed in sp.

Re: What class would i be in if i had.... (MintyDip)
the GS-R should be a very competitive G-Stock car. Keep it there... you'll concentrate your spending on things that will actually make you fast, and you'll be forced to "tune" the setup to get the most out of the car rather than just throwing parts at it.

No that wouldn't be legal for STX cause you are using the ITR tranny which has different gearings than the GSR. You cannot do any tranny work (change ratio of gears) in STS/STX. You can add LSD in STX though.

Take notice of entry #2. The cars have to be listed on the same line in the rulebook for a legal backdate/update. I don't have a rulebook handy but I'm pretty sure the ITR and GSR is not listed on the same line.
