so far ive been able to take out 112+/-lbs and still need to weight the rear seats, and passenger seat, along with the rear braces behind the back seat.

with my math and scale, my car weights in at 3334+/- a few. will weight rear seat tomorrow and subtract.

now i also added weight, 77lbs, vis hood and nitrous system. if i take out a bottle that will reduce the weight by 24-25lbs. but i wont.

so 3441lbs +/-. doesnt seem like i have taken out alot. once i remove the rims it should be alot lighter.

and i have lost 14lbs, my contribute.

Wat do you mean you added weight with the hood?

Rajca: I was rollin around w/ no hood, so the carbon fiber hood added weight. Plus my NOS bottles weigh about 25 apiece.

Looks good then. the thread was about saving gas thats why some of the stuff is mentioned

maybe we can compile a bigger list and get it stickied.

the foam is behind the door panels. its small, but every bit counts.

the headlight diffusor is the yellow thing in the headlights. good for about 4 ounces of weight

also, remove the middle portion of the grill.
