help with rules

**Tom R** · 01-19-2011, 10:08 PM

Hey, I am considering building my 2001 s2000 for ITR. A few DE's after buying the car I destroyed the original 2.0L engine and replaced it with a 2.2L.

Do i need to replace my current engine for a 2.0L before i can legally participate?

both the 2.0L and the 2.2L s2000 are placed at 3005 lbs. I am not sure why the 2.0L with less torque would be rewarded with the same min weight, but anyway...

is there some rule that would allow me to keep the 2.2L engine? maybe updating the transmission?

thanks for the help.

Are the AP1 and AP2 on the same spec line? If so, yes, you can use either engine.

If the cars are on two different spec lines in the ITCS you can't.

You could update the WHOLE thing, anything that is different between AP1 and AP2...rear suspension, transmission...etc. They are on different spec lines.

You might be better off selling the 2.2 and finding a 2.0.
