Seeing your pictures with the UltraShip Digital scale reminded me that I wanted to get one of these scales. It's great for weighing all kinds of stuff.



http://www.amazon.com/Ultraship-Elec...4646519&sr=8-1

I found them for only $18.49 at Amazon.com. Note that this is without the cable/power supply. The scale will run on batteries, but I bought the Power Supply from Amazon, too. It's like $8.49.

This is way cheaper than the sites in the previous link. I bought one (from Amazon) and it's the real thing. It works well.

Hoosiers weight a bit less as well. My 275/40/17 weigh #22.3 whereas the Kuhmo MX of the same size weighs 27.2 each. #20 savings.

Finally did my battery relocation into the tonneau so I can fuel cell the trunk.

I pulled off one of my doors today and holy ****. even though it is nearly 100% stripped meaning outer shell and inner cover ONLY, it is Very heavey. 60 pound pall park.

If the C/f doors only weigh 9 pounds each, I think its worth it to shell out the loot. The doors are really the last thing i can think of to drop weight from the more forward area of the car.

How much are the doors? I just wrecked mine at VIR a week or two ago. the whole drivers side is trashed, and I was thinking about just putting a door skin back in its place ilo a whole door. so basically I'm out a fender, door, quaterpanel, and whatever else mechanical might be broken.

Ouch, good luck with that Bryan. Let us know if you need anything. Oh by the way here you go...

Kwame: the OE door skin is ~$600 each, I think I might be better off going CF or fiberglass replacements. Kwame send me a PM with what you guys can hook me up with. Also looking for +10mm fenders. I'm ready to slap 295s on all four corners. :grin: I'm thinking I need 295/35/18 R888s for zdyaz this year.

Bryan, none of the companies that we deal with offer carbon or fiberglass doors. Well none offer "reasonably priced" carbon doors; the Amuse Dry Carbon Doors are slightly north of $8,500 . I'm sure some here within this very thread have purchased carbon doors elsewhere and hopefully they can share their experiences with them for you.

Same with the fenders. The only company that we deal with that offers somewhat reasonably priced fenders is Ings (FRP). These are the fenders that I have for my own personal car but they are only 5mm wider. Let me know if that will fir the bill for you and I can send you pricing in the am.

Lightning Guy

well I can stuff a 295 under a stock fender with 4 degrees of camber. so +5mm means slightly less camber and I need fenders so please pm me what you can.

I've seen some random brand C/F doors for $650ish. I have no idea about quality or weight but they are cheap...

Seibon wet carbons are like $1800
dry is $2500...

Lightning Guy

The cheap ones are sounding fairly promising. AS a track car it doesn't matter if seams are perfect, or if there is a mark or two on it, LOL. My car is on its 4th paint job and now needing its 5th.

If anyone has a bead on some of the "off brand" stuff drop me a PM.

I replaced the OEM spring buckets with Battleversion toe arms. We did weigh the items, but unfortunately I forgot the actual numbers. I will update as soon as I retrieve some numbers.

03Z33

iTrader: (49)

OEM aluminum spring bucket/toe arm 4.5 lbs per side
Battleversion aluminum toe arm 1 lb per side
Savings of 7 lbs total

OEM steel camber arm ~2.5 lbs per side
Battleversion aluminum camber arm 0.8 lbs per side
Savings of ~3.4 lbs

We forgot to weigh the stock coilovers vs. the Zeals... I guess they're pretty close though.

Don't forget the weight savings you can achieve by removing all the crap useless parts on the car like the gt spec bars

LOL thanks for the numbers Jeff.
