So while I'm building a 350Z to compete in STU I've gone ahead and done some slight modifications to my Sonic to run in HS so I can still get some seat time. I went to a local test n' tune this past weekend (first event of the season here in Alabama) and had a great time. Here's a run down of the modifications I've done:
I know it was just a test n' tune but a lot of the fast locals were there. I ended up 1st in class (HS), 2nd PAX :banana:, and 13th RAW out of 60 participants.
Final, RAW, and PAX results can be seen here: Test N Tune February 20, 2016 | Autocross Scoring
Overall I had a blast and am looking forward to campaigning the car locally this season. I might even run it at the Match Tour later this year since it'll be held at the same site as this test n' tune.
I also bought SoloStorm and used it on my phone for this event. I got it Friday and just fumbled my way through it on Saturday. There are some calibrations I need to do for the TPS and some smoothing I need to take off to get actual data. I'll also be figuring out how to connect to my GoPro so that I can have better vid next time, this one is just cell phone video. Here's my quickest run from it:

A pic from the event where I got some 3 wheel motion:
- DDM 5mm wheel spacers
- DDM rear torsion bar
- GM OEM crash bolts (~ -2.1 camber in front)
- Extra stock LTZ 17" wheels with 215/45 RE71R tires
- Shocks from an RS model
