Weight Reduction
Hi,
anyone is willing to help me to build a weight reduction list for street car? |
Wow this is gonna be a list and a half...
Start with Interior..... - Remove your carpet and trash that called insulation... - While carpet is removed, remove all the seam sealer... - Swap your seats, from power to non-power or something after market... - Bye, Bye spare tire and jack... - Yep thats right.....decrease the size of your stereo or remove the entire thing.... - Only need wiper arms and blades when it rains, hell RAINX... - Drag rims are nice weight drop... - Chromoly tubular K member and A arms.... - Air bag(s) delete... - A/C Delete... - Loose weight your self.....LOL j/k - Floor mats are only for looks... lol - Swap from power mirrors, door looks, and windows to ALL Manual - All your glass to plexiglass - Remove your wing - Do you need 4 bolts holding your shift in, when 2 work just fine.....Do you need 2" long bolts holding that in there when 3/4" Long bolts will do the same damn thing? - Do I hear a aluminum drive shaft swap? - Oh look more seam sealer in the trunk... - Swap your complete wiring from stock to painless wiring... I have more just need to think about it....this should get you started lol. |
Don't forget the front sway bar delete
Battery in the trunk,not much of a weight reduction,but helps plant the rear tires,and takes the weight off the front Lose your fog lights Lose your tail pipes Lose the rear seat Front,and rear inner bumpers under the facias You can always cut the side impact bars out of the doors There is probably more.LOL! |
The basic ones and I forgot about them LOL!
Good call :) I even done the front sway bar, fog lights as well! Since I have the SN95 I did the Fox fiberglass bumper swap.... https://www.cmoc.ca/forums/t9548/ |
Deleting the air bag is legal?
|
You can delete the EGR stuff, smog pump stuff, you can go with coil over. Steeda sell Ultra lite wheel if you don't want to go with skinnies.
