The rear bumper reinforcement is seriously heavy on the S13, this is due to the fuel tank being so easily accessible in a rear end collision. They want the extra protection. Shame is most cars that get hit tweak the quarters since it's so solid.

Hatch, also quite heavy, a CF/FG one with Lexan/acrylic window weighs less than half.

The heater core and box is light, so is the blower motor and box. Since you don't have A/C you can pull the evaporator core, remove the unit, then put the empty box back in, that only saves maybe 4-5lbs but you can get $10-15 for it at the metal recycler.

There's nothing majorly heavy that's easily removed after that unless you start cutting sheetmetal.

My S14 got down to 2640 I think, I had plans to go lighter and really make it undriveable but sold it.
