I thought i got it all but i was wrong In my car at least, I counted 2 soft coats of tar in the front portion of the seats COATED with one VERY VERY hard layer. = 3 coats !!!! only in the front. i found some in the very very back ( not alot but enough and it was 1/8 thick too wtf is up with that ) removed !!! and that Large part under the rear seats i finaly removed the last layer ( my car had two layers in that section for some reason....my buds only had one
take out that 15 pounds weight in your bumper too, oh and all the door panels ( like i did ....youll shave around 50 pounds no issues. all the plastic gets heavy mask the windows, rip your car down to nothing and paint the frames etc......

well, the way i see,...shit never gets truely done unless you worry about finances later, and dive in to buy parts first. That way...your sorta forced to cary through with your plans. To be honest, i actualy thought taking out the rear seats was considerd weight reduction. Then i saw all these dam drift cars that were with no interior and said fuck it. That and i watched a video of a gt3 cup car ( "the kid" ) race and ...... i just wanted to make the cl as far from "daily" as i could in terms of weight, sound etc.... the car isnt that loud actualy, just rumbly. 750 for a complete swap install sounds like a deal to me..so if the dam motor with EVERYTHING included is 2300 shipped including axels etc....then for under 3200 ( shit can and will go wrong at the shop most likely so extra money is almost required ) then might as well for a allout rpm moster. ( even though the h22a is realy not that high reving. idk, my f22b1 has several offers pending on it sooo, the extra grand and some change will help me out as well. theres realy nothing more i can do to it and i dont realy like boost after all the fucking hell i had trying to do it right.

Good shit, way to step it up a level.. Couple ques for you. What'd you use to get the tar off the floor boards? Scraper?? Details please. What are you selling the F22B1 for? What's included? Details... Lastly the car is lookin real good, keep takin it to the next level..
