Thread: Official Weight Reduction Post!!! Reborn!

I'd rather have piece of mine then the 2nd pic ^^

That's a choice you can make, my friend. And that would be "peace of mind," not "piece of mine."

that fixaflat goo pisses off the tire guys though. the goo sticks to the wheel and makes it a pain to mount tires on that wheel.

just remove the tyre when you attend a race. otherwise leave it in

Thanks -- that's good information. I was wondering about that.

Well, I got it out. So I figure im somewhere in the area of 100 lbs total out of the car. Now the fun starts. I get the heavy machinery out and start cutting....< Evil Mad Scientist Laugh>

So far, my car has no sunroof, no abs. I removed all a/c items in the bay and behind the dash, i have no cd player, No front bumper support, no spare tire and jack, nothing in the engine bay that isnt needed is removed, gutted front bumper, and probably the biggest saving is no stock exhaust, i have the stock exhaust laying at my house, i should weigh it sometime to see what it weighs, i guess this would only apply to turbo guys running open downpipe. i run mine that way 24 7 so it makes more power and saves alot of weight, im guessing the stock exhaust is in the neighborhood of 60lbs or so.

I eventually want to get the hawker 9lb battery to replace my 40lb duralast battery, and a cf hood to save another 30lbs, and remove the rear bumper support for another 25lbs and then on the days i go to the track remove the rear seats and passenger seat for an additional 40lbs. I think with all of that i should be around the 2000lb range.

HELL YEA!! I just removed ALL of the sound deadening from my 91 NX and removed my firewall blanket as well! I'm glad to know Im 50 pounds lighter

stupid question how do you fasten the bumper to the car if you remove the support? and what is there to gut in the bumper anyway?

my 4-door weighed in a 2380 with everything in it except the a/c system

once i am done with my weight reduction i will post the weight up
