Little bit of help please!!

Hey guy's! I need some help. I am going to be picking up a 91 eclipse gsx, and i need help modding it. where do you guysgo to get your seats, harnesses, rollcages, wheels, etc. i am not building a full on dirt rally car, but a tarmac car/ autocross/ SOLO II car. I live in Tucson, AZ half the year, and then in Prescott, AZ for the other half (school at Uof A) So please help me out all you can. thanks!

first, pick what Solo II class you want to run in, then we can tell you how to set up your car.

Re: Little bit of help please!!

solo II is autocross

you don't need any equipment, the only thing that I advise you getting to start is good tires. with your current setup you're in STS, you'd be in H-Stock if you took off your TB Spacer (doubt its doing a hell of alot anyway). For tires I would go to www.vulcantire.com and get some Falken Azenises, i believe they have a size that fits on the factory 3G GS rim.

Re: Little bit of help please!!

you said tarmac/autocross/solo II, none of those are rally

you can't do prorally until you do clubrally first, and you can't drive in a clubrally until you navigate in a clubrally first. Go out and find someone to navigate for.

Just do what I plan to do.. SCCA Rallycross first, you really dont need much equipment to run in it. Just get a feel, and see if you'd like to proceed.

Re: Little bit of help please!!

The only similarity between (SCCA) Rallycross, and real Rallying, is the fact that it's on dirt.
