[QUOTE="Corbic, post: 15426896, member: 171475"] Since you are keeping it Street... Leave the battery alone, just relocate it to the truck, use a sealed box. That will help weight distribution. I and many I know have had nothing but problems with those over priced mini batteries. Leave your A/C alone. You'll notice it's absence a lot more then it's weight savings. K-member will save you 50lbs. Get some adjustable A-arms and coils up front. That's another 25lbs. As mentioned, quality forged wheels will drop 20-50lbs. Watch out on the rear seat delete, some kits are wood and carpet and it ends up being a neutral savings. I had a Fiberglas truck I found on eBay for my SN95 years ago for cheap. It's a nice savings. Ditch the front crash beam and fab a bar. I wouldn't go "race seats" but if you can fav you can toss in some manual import seats like ones from a S14 240sx, MR2, Civic Si, Del Sol etc and save weight for only $50 or so. Leave the sound deadening alone. It makes the car sound like shit and didn't do much in weight. Exhaust system will cut a few pounds. [/QUOTE]
