mine will be fine as a rally car anyway, but it will comply as the same chassis is being used for the new sti a-line carbon (factory sti with carbon roof!)

Still won't comply with ADR's as we will never see that model in OZ!

the a-line "carbon" was only a concept car, i dont think they were actually making a production run?

I checked there website but no roof skins for gc8 :/

still dont care, it is NOT a road car!

not that i am terribly worried having to spell out that my car is not a road car every time i ask a question, cos there are not many people who have a dedicated track/rally car that is so new but should i put in my signature that i really don't care about insurance or ADR's? (oh by the way it is insured with shannons and they know it has no interior or airbags and they know a cage is going in!) cos that way i think it would save every one telling me about things that would be a problem to most but not really a problem to me!

do you think that would be a good idea?

How about you post some photos and details of your 08 WRX rally car in a new thread?

i will mate, i am planning on doing a full build but a lot of the bits haven't arrived as yet, over the next month i will get it going for you, at the moment i just have a pile of boxes full of awesome bits and a car with a fucked roof (althought the interior has started to come out of it!)

i will do a full build thread soon

Lower center of gravity, which isnt a big issue in wrx's because of the boxer engine, but the lower you get the COG the better it will corner. It should make a big difference.

I'm interested to know the class of rally/track car that allows you to replace the roof skin with carbon?

To my knowledge even sports sedans (the most highly modified sedan based race car class) still requires an original equipment roof and turret.
