my Z on a diet ( 2988 lbs )
not sure if this is the correct place to put this thread in , but few people have asked me what have I done to lose the weight in my car...
Well , here are some pictures...
sure it doesnt look pretty , but it serves its purpose
my goal was to get this car under 3000 lbs and thats what I did...
when I hit 2988 lbs , my Z was without the passenger's seat..

That's incredible...I had no idea that stuff back there weighed so much. My spare is gone, but G/F would give me the stink-eye if I got rid of the passenger seat. What was the total weight reduction?

just wondering why you dont remove the sound system or even a/c
i mean i can understand that the a/c serves its purpose but it seems that you are really serious about weight reduction
and yeh..that is pretty damn ugly...

At the same time that I was loosing the weight , I installed the exhaust , test pipes , pulley and Short Shifter , so I cant really say what impact dropping the weight had...
