I'm new to this forum so hopefully im posting this in the right place. I'm looking to shed a few pounds in my 3sgte swapped 94 Celica st and I'm kinda wondering where to start. I don't want to completely gut the interior since this is gonna be a summer daily.
I figure since the back seats are practically useless in these, taking them out would probably cut down on weight drastically (anyone know how much they weigh?). I've got a leaking gas tank too so ill probably switch to a fuel cell to cut down on weight as well. I may chuck the spare tire too but this is a daily so I'm kinda iffy on that. Anyone have some more suggestions? Thanks! |

Haha I suppose I'm at that age. for 20 pounds or so I'll probably just leave them in. I figured there was way more weight back there but I guess not. Its gonna be driven pretty often so it would be nice for it to not be any harsher than it already is lol. Once I replace the beat out struts and quiet down some of the rattling trim it should be a bit more tolerable. I think it's gonna be loud either way since I'm driving on ****ty Canadian roads with low profiles. The trunk and hood seem to be heavy as hell too but I'm not willing to spend 2+ grand on carbon haha. I'll just spend that money to do some suspension upgrades and possibly up the power a bit. Thanks for the input!
