I've lost about 15 lbs since getting the Z so i'd say about 15 lbs lighter...

Well, around all four corners, my Pilot Sports save me 7-8lbs each, which is quite large. My upcoming Axis Hiros will weigh another 8-9lbs less per rim. My Borla TD weighs 17lbs less than OEM. And my HFCs will save me another 20lbs+ over the OEM cats. I have removed the carpets in the footwells (5lbs) since I clean the car fairly often, anyways. I removed the top rear carpet, as well (6lbs - I think).

Edit: Oh, and I do believe Hotchkis springs weigh 4lbs less per spring (so that's another ~16lbs). I need to check how much my OEMs weigh again. I know the Hotchkis weigh 8.8lbs (rear) to 9.4lbs (front).

Next on my list for this spring is volk ce28, carbon fiber hood/hatch, and some racing seats...

SniperHunter 02-07-2008 08:44 PM

Well...I just got owned. LOL.

Nice job! Takes major cajones to do that!

I've lost about 60 kg so far which is about 130 lbs.

- seats --> Bride Cuga
- exhaust --> Amuse R1 Titan, no cats, Fuji Y pipe, Tomei headers
- wheels --> TE37
- brakes --> Endless BBK (not much weight loss though I have found)
- suspension arms, links and rods --> Nagisa Auto everywhere
- removed plasticss behind seat


I have however gained a few kilos with the cage and coilovers.

Typical noobs ... Do you honestly think most members here can't afford a $100 dollar tow? Some of us are dropped low enough where a spare might end up making our Z's scrape.

Great ... more noobs getting "salvaged" Zs and claimings they're something they're not.

How's that Non-Grand Touring with your non-existent brembo brakes treating you? You should have just stuck with the riced out celica.

BTW ... you fail at life.

jerry_2612 02-07-2008 11:39 PM

Are you people ok? taking out the tire, jack and tools is more practical than a bloody passanger seat!!!! :icon20: every little bit counts!

Get_Zwole 02-08-2008 12:28 AM

i have a 35k car with over 5 or 6 in mods i think i can afford AAA card or a freakin tow lol. Noobs they just never learn, cool celica you had too my ex had one but i think hers was a little less umm gay?

wtf is this garbage?? The tire and tools weight close to 40 lbs total. What the hell kind of 10-pound spare do you have? I'll take a dump and it'll weight more than 10 pounds. "leave one headlight in" bhahaha....each headlight weights about 2 pounds with bulb. So it's smarter to risk ramming into someone's car at night to save 2 pounds of weight than it is to remove the spare, smart one?

Have you tried an odyssey battery? Cost about $90, weights 12 lbs vs stock battery's 35-38lbs. More importantly, you're removing weight from the front and top part of the car....
