aid scrutineers in identifying parts and the configuration of the automobile.
The items outlined in this VTS document represent the only modifications and safety items permitted and/or required on
Spec MX-5 vehicles other than safety items as required in SCCA’s current GCR Section
9. Parts and components may not perform an unauthorized function (i.e. Modifications must be stated as authorized or
cannot be done).
If the Mazda Factory Manual or these rules provide only a partial specification or no specification at all, the Mazda parts may
not be modified beyond what is permitted in these rules. Compliance will be determined by comparison to new or like parts
and/or the parts compliance measurement listing delivered by Mazda. Other approved parts with only a partial specification
or no specification available in these rules may not be modified.
