I need to get my car on a diet. I already deleted the raer seats. I was thinking of deleting the rear plastic panels. My goel is to get her to 3000lbs. If possible less. Any other things i can delet to get her lighter?

I like to remove the rear seats/pad and the passenger seat. That with aluminum heads and maybe yank the carpet and you should be there.

Ac and smog pumps.

Also to really lower some weight you should replace the front k-member and get some aftermarket brakes. That reduces weight dramatically.

FUCK IT. I'm going to strip everything in the car and ride on a bucket. Let me see......Do i need windshields? NAWWWWWWWW. I dont need mirrors.

Maybe ill just replace the front seats for some rocero seats and leave it at that. Thanx for the replys guys. Any more ideas?

Lets put my car on a diet too! Even with aluminum heads, no smog, etc, I'm still at 3500lbs race weight!

If you weren't such a skinny f*ck I'd tell you to go on a diet.

Hell, my car could lose 60 lbs of race weight just by kicking my fat ass out the car and putting you in the drivers seat.
