Re: Weight Reduction
Just noticed the keyword "without" anything extreme in your op. Yeah. Either way, removing items doesn't save a ton. Spare, light wheels, ds. What? Maybe 80lbs?
|
I have a Laguna Seca rear seat delete for sale. Saves a about a pound or two.
|
Couldn't find the thread I was talking about earlier. It had a list of all the stock stuff vs aftermarket stuff and the weight savings.
Basic rundown was: Wheels/tires No cats/aftermarket exhaust (mufflers way a ton) Remove axle weights Remove front sway bar Tubular radiator support Remove spare (or tire mobility kit ;)) Alum. driveshaft Battery (don't remember exactly what it was but some aftermarket battery that is quite a bit lighter. Odyssey maybe?) Suspension parts (not a big loss but it adds up) |
So without going extreme I could probably shave off around 100lbs. Just trying to get a better horsepower to weight ratio. I haven't decided if I wanna do full bolt ons or go all the way with a TT Kit...
|
I need to weigh my car and see what I've shaved off.
|
I usually take the spare tire and jack out and have about 1/4 of a tank of gas. Nothing else.

For reference, my car with 15" DR's (275/60's on 15x10 RaceStars), the stock 19" fronts, full interior, and Pypes Pype Bomb muffler deletes weighed 3755 at MIR with a half tank of gas and me in it.
