Weight obsession - part weights on S13

That stuff adds up. I thought it didn't matter that much until I put all that crap in a big box and weighed it. I think all the interior from the rear seats back was ~70-80 lbs. 4 lbs here, 6 lbs there - it all adds up when you take a lot of it out.


When comparing my weight to yours, don't forget mine has stuff that makes it work better as a track car like bigger brakes, an oil cooler, cool shirt setup, 50+ lb roll bar, big ass wing and splitter etc. Take all that out and I know I'm in the low-mid 2400's, and my car looks fairly "stock" on the inside.
