You should take out the stock seats and get some racing buckets. Those may save you some weight as well. You got the seat heaters in there and all that crap. Those stock seats aint too fuckin light either. Throw some sparcos in there or something. Or you could just to some APC ones for the time being. you can get a pair on ebay for like 150-200 bucks.

yeah, i planned to get some recaro's. my seats dont have a heater and only my drivers seat has power so I want to sell all my leather seats and just get two racing seats out of it. BUT not many people have much to offer. They dont like shipping big things. ( fedex is dirt cheap to ship huge shit ) i sold a CLS rims and shipped it for less than 20 bucks

I mean at the most youll probably shave about 25-50 pounds off doing that. Im not sure how much the stock seats weigh, but i know they are not too light either. If i were to guess id say about 25-40 pounds a piece.

im only 137 pounds. i shaved just about 120 from all this shit ( minus the front passenger seat ) EVERY little bit helps. I have alot more of that dam factory insulation to melt out, but its easy, just takes time. im going to dynomat only the parts i feel need it. Im going to homedepot today to get padding for the sharp edges ( shit they use to cover roll bars with.. same exact shit ) and the supporst as well, ( after those get painted black.

i let people think what they want to think if there going to enter a conflict with me. Let them tell me what they think when there on the ground too, because they just start swinging and dont know how to fight. small dudes=fast when they use martial arts ( i fucking hate that word ) "techniques"

You know tints will probably weigh down your car you might want to reconsider getting them.

they dont have any weight to matter to me. I can take a shit before i leave, and that would do more than take the weight of the tints

against the third civic, 68 degs ( overcast ) roughly 79 percent humidity, tire pressure 30 in the front 34 in the rear, i ran 15.03

my best run was a 14.96 2.23 et with 31 in the front, 33 in the rear, stripped ( always now i guess ) 66 degs, and 70 percent humidity tward the end of the day. againts the eg, who later ran low 14s after we fixed his vacume lines.


i cant do any better than that with my setup right now. I need to discuss some things with shineyelite before we dip into the 13s with mo powa.
