[QUOTE="SCalla1384, post: 13293106, member: 90008"] I've swapped to 17x7 wheels up front and 15x8 out back. That was about 105lbs right there. Swapped to an aluminum driveshaft was another 18lbs. About 120lbs of rotating mass was dropped right there. Tubular K, tubular A arms, tubular LCA/panhard bar, full exhaust, less gas (6lb per gallon) trunk stuff, axle weights, insulation, pull the rear seats up, might find a cross bar or something you dont need, then all the other little stuff, you can shed around 300lbs. Probably more depending on how much you spend. I bought used 3.73's because I plan on having them REM polished/lightend which saves 6lbs. You could even be hardcore about it and do that to your transmission gears. My problem is, I don't want to take away from the car. Meaning I won't pull the sway bar (maybe for track only) as far as bumper supports, I'm not sure yet. I don't know if I want to chance it with insurance if I ever had to. [/QUOTE]
