Hey everyone,

First post so forgive me if I have messed anything up. I am looking into an SS II at the moment and should have it in 2 weeks. Thing is I was wondering if a few more horses could be squeezed out without too much work or money.

Essentially I want to be able to rip a type r integra to pieces (my friend owns one and hes intolerable in that thing)

If big money is needed is there a way to sequence a build so that I can continue to upgrade over time??
I ask ye because Ive been reading the forums for a while now and the details and facts that are given are incredible.

There is a cheap way to make your car alot faster and its FREE! Weight loss! smile.gif

Smaller battery moved to the boot,
Remove AC (15kg hanging over the very front of your car)
Remove rear wiper
Stripped interior (rear seats, rear speakers, spare wheel and jack, rear seat belts, plastic trim, door cards are heavy too)
Remove Air bags

Also:
lightweight wheels
Carbon fiber or fiber glass bonnet (or an aluminum GT4 bonnet)
Carbon fiber or fiber rear hatch
Plastic windows
lightweight seats
lightweight mirrors (electric folding mirrors are 6kg a pair!!)

Here is mine recently stripped out:




I put it all back in as its ALOT louder when stripped. Especially when you have a uprated fuel pump buzzing behind you.
