i have too much camber lol
im getting a new setup for the upcoming auto-x season.
weighing soon!

What all have you done for weight reduction, if I may ask?

I'm considering doing the same, going for a light 7A-FTE setup over a standard 3S-GTE.

i honestly cant remember off the top of my head. i literally havent done anything to my car since i got my rims basically.
i plan on weighing it within the next few days. and some other odds n ends.

im considering taking out the a/c but that would be a summer project so i still have time to decide

Well I mean, just main points...rear seat delete, spare delete, rear plastic delete...all of the above...y'know what I mean?

yeah all of that
passenger seat
suspension
umm
there are a few other things for the life of me i cant remember
i will probably go for the hatch hood ac battery and a few other things here and there



so the final weight now is 2495!

weighed her today minus myself and a quarter tank of gas

Org weight from last weigh in 1 year ago 2560lbs

Congrats!

Nice. Consolation that mine weighs 2409?

sorry to sound dumb but what exactly did you take out of your car when you got it weighed?

its that DAMN 7A!



the spare and the jack

lol

ok so that I get this right this is what you took out:

-Rear Seats
-Passenger Seat
-Interior Plastics-
-Spare Tire And Jack

all that equaled 2,495 pounds

So you weighed as if you were going autocross right after

Wait, so my Celica is going to be heavier now with the 3S? That's freakin' BS, man. I didn't even think of that.

also 100x faster than the lightest NA celica on this site.

haha not a fully built beams. they would be evenly matched. well maybe in power but not in torque. Im just upsessed with lightweight n/a ff cars or anything thats lightweight, that why Im not really into the 3sgte in an celica thats ff...

^^ Good luck building the BEAMS. Did somebody say custom work?

Tiga, I'm very impressed! I'd love to see what that car will weigh after you strip some more things off. Keep up the good work, and I can't wait to see some autocross numbers from next season. I may even have to hurry up and get my car swapped and lowered and head over to St. Louis and see what numbers I can't put down myself.

Lawls.

I want to weigh my car. Where can I do that? I mean, there are trucks in this island. I'm sure there must be a station somewhere where they have a scale. I could pay to get it weighted. Like always, we get away with paying our way through things. My car and bikes don't pass emissions. What to do? Pay $20 instead of $11 and the guy sniffes another car.

Land fills have weigh stations
basically wherever the trucks get weighed, they might allow passenger vehicles for a fee


no that my rear end is a feather ive decided that the AC will be coming out along with either a battery relocation or a lightweight battery, and then possibly windshield washer tank depending on the size....i honestly havent looked under the hood in detail in a few months
too cold

other than taking the engine out i cant think of anything else to take out of the front lol

Get plexiglass windows.

How much do you weight? You can lose a few pounds if you have extra ones you don't need.

Get a small alternator. Gut your hood. Gut your doors.
