You have a couple of choices.

1. STS (requires street tires)
2. DSP
3. Street Tire Pax (requires street tires)
4. Street Mod
5. ? Prepared

If you are putting in a lightened fly wheel it might affect the class you are in.
I think it might throw you into prepared or SM.

STS is a great class. I ran a GSR and SER in it a few times last year. I'm
trying to talk my brother into running in SM, but it is his car and he can do
what he wants.

A lightened flywheel would put you into DSP.

You can't completely replace body panels in SP. If you think about it, unlimited replacement of body panels is a MAJOR allowance, so it's not surprising such changes would move you up a class. I understand a JDM clip likely won't give you much of a performance benefit, but think about what an enterprising competitor could do to cut car weight with free reign and some money.

If it makes you feel better. I checked the results from last year and STS was faster then SM at ever single event. It was also faster then DSP all but 2 events. So based on last years results you will be running in slower class, but I'm sure that will change this year.
