it really depends on what you call "unnecessary"
AC components both in the engine bay (probably ~30lbs) and on the inside (~15lbs) Sunroof (~25lbs) backseats (~10-15lbs) plastics (~5-7lbs) you should be able to remove at least ~50lbs worth of stuff. and maintain decent street ability. there is however ways to get up to /over 100lbs easy. i once weighted stuff but can't remember exact weights) This post has been edited by playr158: Oct 9, 2008 - 2:11 PM |

one time i just cleaned out everything i had sitting around in the car and weighed it as i did... 130 lbs.. so keeping your car clean/trunk empty will help a lot. i know it sounds like common sense but i never realized how much i had in there until i weighed it all! (*I took out the spare and jack when i did this)
