I was wondering how much weight we would save by gutting our interior and anything else you all can think of. I want to gut my car out and just have one or two racing seats, but if it only saves me 100 pounds, hell no.

I've replaced my hatch (with an oem one) and I'd say that the hatch with the back window by itself probably about 80 pounds. so a cf one with a plexiglass window would probably save 50+ pounds. I've also put on fiberglass fenders, and I'd say you probably only save like 2-3 pounds per fender. the stock fenders aren't very heavy. I don't know how much the hood, spare tire, and backseat weigh, so I can't help you there. --------------------  94 GT - Sold -------- 69 Pontiac Lemans - Sold 88 Alltrac - Sold ---- 04 WRX - Sold 00 GT-S - Sold ------ 91 Miata - project/drift car 95 GT - Sold -------- 96 GT - New Daily Drive |
