[QUOTE="ExTurbo, post: 13573418, member: 53275"] I was going to make a post about this earlier as i was looking around for a list. I made my own just to get an idea of what was possible. even if you arent drag racing the car, taking weight off the front end will at least improve the weight distribution on the car. K member 18lbs A-arms 11lbs radiator support saves 8 lbs front and rear bumper supports save 24lbs remove jack and spare (id keep it in except for track days) not sure but id guess at least 30-40lbs...if someone could weigh it that would help) rear seat delete, say 20-30lbs wheels and tires, if you are drag racing im told this can save almost 70lbs with skinnies aluminum DS 20lbs Im thinking exhaust could save a few lbs, headers i cant imagine being that much lighter than the stock manifolds as they arent cast iron. maybe a cat delete could save weight. Aluminum flywheel, not sure how much weight savings is possible there, depends on your budget and how much drivability you are willing to give up race brakes, expensive but unsprung and rotating Id say you can do at least 150-200lbs before you start getting really expensive. and it depends on what you are willing to do. A lot of things are "off road" use only. personally that wouldnt hold me back but i know for some it definitely would [/QUOTE]
