What all have you done for weight reduction, if I may ask?

I'm considering doing the same, going for a light 7A-FTE setup over a standard 3S-GTE.

ok so that I get this right this is what you took out:

-Rear Seats
-Passenger Seat
-Interior Plastics-
-Spare Tire And Jack

all that equaled 2,495 pounds

So you weighed as if you were going autocross right after

^^ Good luck building the BEAMS. Did somebody say custom work?

Tiga, I'm very impressed! I'd love to see what that car will weigh after you strip some more things off. Keep up the good work, and I can't wait to see some autocross numbers from next season. thumbsup.gif I may even have to hurry up and get my car swapped and lowered and head over to St. Louis and see what numbers I can't put down myself.

I want to weigh my car. Where can I do that? I mean, there are trucks in this island. I'm sure there must be a station somewhere where they have a scale. I could pay to get it weighted. Like always, we get away with paying our way through things. My car and bikes don't pass emissions. What to do? Pay $20 instead of $11 and the guy sniffes another car. tongue.gif

Land fills have weigh stations
basically wherever the trucks get weighed, they might allow passenger vehicles for a fee


no that my rear end is a feather ive decided that the AC will be coming out along with either a battery relocation or a lightweight battery, and then possibly windshield washer tank depending on the size....i honestly havent looked under the hood in detail in a few months
too cold

other than taking the engine out i cant think of anything else to take out of the front lol

How much do you weight? You can lose a few pounds if you have extra ones you don't need. tongue.gif

Get a small alternator. Gut your hood. Gut your doors.
