Soon ima be cutting this Metal speaker housing out for track purposes (this is not a daily) and i was wondering around how much weight people have shaved from cutting this metal out, just looking for an approximate weight haha 🙏🏽

My guess is 10lbs or so.

BTW, any interest in sending me the rear support for the storage cubby and its bolts?

The entire speaker bar assembly might be 30lbs to 40lbs. Great way to reduce weight but that provides structural ridigity to the car - one step forward / one step back.

proceed accordingly -

This may be overstating the overall weight of this assembly. Nissan used lightweight engineering for this torsional brace and the last time I checked, I believe it was only 18-20 lbs. Without it, the torsional rigidity of the FM chassis is compromised and you'll need to replace it with a longitudinal brace for true track use. Maybe the OP can use this thread to inform us what the weight actually is.
