Unsure on rules but I had my mind set on removing the wind dowm windows and replacement with perspex. That way you could also remove the window regulators. Glass would definitely be something to look into

SLS compressor (if the car has it) Look into removing the ABS.. Make the air con compressor into basically a hollow idler and remove all A/C crap. Heater hoses, and the metal pipe around the engine. Cut the exhaust shorter. (Not too short though)

To disable the ABS all you need to do is pull the large fuse out from under then engine bay on the drivers side.
Check my gallery pics if there is any doubt of what type of burnout a NF lane can pull with the ABS turned off.

A cheap pipe bender is around $30, and a 45 degree double flare tool is $40 for a cheap one or about $120 for a half decent one. Alternatively you can get the brake shop to flare the ends for you. |

This. I've seen what happens when ABS has been Disabled and things go wrong....
