I already know their is a how to on weight reduction, this will be a continuation over the summer, im going to try to get my car as light as possible, and past normal weight reduction for the track. then im going to spend the rest of winter trying to remember how to put it back together.

i used a regular home scale, it would not register under 3lbs so i guestimated. (update-stand on scale weigh myself with then without stuff thats under 3lbs)

Rear seat Top Left 7.4 lbs
rear seat top right 9.6 lbs
bottom seat 10.8 lbs
trunk side wall and trunk carpet 6.2 lbs
miscellaneous plastic bolts and trim pieces (not including shifting area) 7 lbs
passenger seat 42 lbs
spare tire jack and wrench 5.8 lbs

(i no longer have the stock subwoofer or spare tire so i used other info)

stock subwoofer 13 lbs
spare tire 28 lbs

UPDATED:
glove box with manual and random crap 4.8 lbs
rear head rests 3.6 lbs
plastic paneling front of shifter area 2.4 lbs
cup holder filled with bolts and plastic bolts 2 lbs
plastic floor rails and center shifter console 4 lbs
rear a-pillars 2.2 lbs

Grand total to date: 165.6 lbs of weight reduction

 

carpets, door panels, rear deck, the headrest on them, the speakers, all the interior pieces, for the actual racing you could remove the headlights, drain the washer fluid, not have a full tank of gas

and if you could safely remove the rear seatbelt assemblies that would probably take out another 25 lbs.

 

take off the doors while your at it, they sell fiberglass ones. ^_^ and lexan windows

 

thats a bit much.

so what do you think you will gain in the quater mile? like .15?

 

if i shave another 120 pounds i will run a 12.9

 

nicee, idk where your gonna get 120 from though. rear headrest, seat belts. other than that ur running out of stuff haha.

 

im going to do the dash next

 

Crash bar, heat shields, remove catback, run gas down till the light is on and bring a full gas can, and if i think of anything else i'll post them lol..

 

frame and and drivetrain.

 

im not removing the crash bar but ive seen people do it.

heat shield gone,
cat gone.

Take the carpeting out, it's heavier then it looks

 

how much do YOU weigh..?

 

im old so im a fat ****. around 190 pounds
