well just picked up my lex a few days ago. and has to push it in the storage(me and my buddy) and i finally realized that this car is heavy as ****.

any pointers aside from removing the spare tire,to get some weight off?? sound deading?? the rear seats? discuss!!

 

you obviously haven't searched even a little bit!

 

im just going to post in hopes of you reading my signature...

 

You can take the engine and transmission off, as well as the spare tire to make it lighter?

 

Change the laws of physics and gravity and our cars will be "lighter."

 

Fiberglass the entire trunk area to seal it off from any possible leaks. Install a valve to fill in helium. Fill helium to 38 psi. Just watch out when you go over bumps though. The back end gets some air.

 

plexi glass windows all around, moon roof delete, carbon fiber doors, trunk, hood, fenders, seats, strip interior and trunk, fuel cell

 

Swap the VIN tags onto a geo metro.

 

This one made me laugh hard because my friend and I have gotten some real serious air in his off the train tracks.

 

weight won't matter when you have enough power

 

Exactly, I'll take a heavy 400hp car over a lighter 300hp car any day, the stablity is worth it.

REAL TALK HERE.

Remove the front seats and replace them with some real carbon fiber bucket seats.

I weighed my driver side seat when i swapped it out for my fiberglass bucket and had a savings of over 70lbs. The seats in our cars have motors as well as heating elements and wear a metric ton lol

 

You can:

-get a lightweight aftermarket battery
-remove both towhooks
-remove backseat
-spare tire
-aftermarket seats, like the ones from F&F to be exact
-if you got $$$, carbon fiber doors, hood, fenders, trunk

Thats a start.

 

NO....a REAL start (or real talk) would be to add to the ALREADY existing threads on this topic rather than spreading info across a dozen seperate noob threads
