Any itea your Goal weight of this car??? I love your Build!!!

 

really don't know yet until I weigh her.. But it should be 3k or lower.. would love it to be at 2800lbs.. but you never know.. I have taken a ton of weight of her so we will see.

 

It's hard to get them low.

 

Yup i agree.. I saw that you guys are at around 3085lbs.. What you think it will be at once you are done..

 

qwamen is right aoruns 2800, but hes got nothing, literally nothing in his car. he is however on factory glass and hatch, but id be more worried about balancing the weight correctly across the car

 

Yeah I knew he was around that.. I have pretty much nothing also just my dash, center consul, and maybe keep my carpet but not for sure yet....lol No door skins no nothing. Everything is gone.

 

The cage will be the deciding factor. Depending on what we end up doing the weight will vary a good bit.

 

As bbs mentioned my car is at 2,812lbs without me in it. That is with a full tank of gas, all fluids filled and heavy Axis Reverb wheels on. However, as he mentioned my car is 95% stripped of everything I can. I am still working on the last 5% but I should be able to get the car down to 2,700lbs. I should be very close to 2,700lbs come spring if I can afford skinnies and front brakes on top of a FAST intake/tb and nitrous setup.

I am guessing Edafe's car should be in the 2,900 range somewhere.

 

^^ Man that car is going to fly at that weight... And I hope I am around 2,900 I will know far sure once I am done with the build and I can have a proper weigh in..


Sorry for the lack of update, waiting on my paint to get here so I can finish up painting everything and give you guys a nice update..

Well until then here is a tease shot of my new wheels fitment with my Do-luck overs.. had to..



I would say that is spot on..

 

^widebody too?

 

Nice! Very clean offset! I pm'ed you a couple weeks ago for some pricing on wheels for the G35x

 

^you bought a g35x dude? damn its been too log, miss your shining face cupcake <3

 

Well just the rear quarter panels.. Was going to stick to my OEM pulled fenders but wanted to change it up.. and this way if I get hit or hit something later I could just replace the rear quarter panels.. But I think it will look good with the matte white wrap and black rivets..


Thanks,, and man so sorry for the late response.. I just sent you quote ..

 

always more curious

 

damn quaman, 2700lbs!!... My Z is completely stripped too! but I also have carbon fiber doors,hatch,hood, and lexan all around... if i even break down to less than than, this would be a very scary Z... and I wanted to add boost...

 

your gonna teleport to the next dimension at that weight

 

It's definitely possible if you don't have a body kit and have nearly everything removed like a racecar. Rewiring my car saved almost 80lbs as well. Skinnies up front, lighter rotors and removing weight from my doors is gonna get me down to my final weight of 2,7XX lbs this year while getting more weight off the front. Since my car is a drag car I am strongly considering removed my power steering as well.

 

sick!.. I gave up my AC system, but I am going to keep the power steering lol. Sorry for the hijack royal

 

AC is for sissies

 

hahaha Vas_Z33 you are not hijacking my thread.. its all good.. Should paint the bay this week guys..
