Gutted interior on the street is for retards. I tried it once upon a time, it fucking sucks.


Keep your interior, the weight savings won't be really noticeable, especially if you don't remove the important shit (HVAC shit behind the dash, AC stuff, skeleton in the doors, sound deadening, etc.) Removing your carpet isn't going to save you shit...in fact, it'll just suck worse because your car will look like a rolling box of dogshit and no girls will want to get inside of it.

[krazyfil]

yea its the c pillar bar... but... i was shipped the wrong one.. they sent it to me for a damn civic hb... so i made dew whut i could..lol.. but it looks a lil bit different now... ill post pics up later tonight hopefully... and as far as having the door panels and all that shit... thats just for a comfort factor... im not gonna waste my time taking those things off just for an extra 2.2 pounds.. and plus i put stuff like my cds and such in them

If that doesn't inspire you, nothing will.

+1 rep for that!!

I agree, completely a waste. All it does is cause more noise. And the weight savings aren't really necessary.... "zomg, I'll get to the store fastAr because my s13 weighs 10lbs less!"

Alex

[krazyfil]

actually... i work at a truck stop... and after i took out all the crap from my car with everything... it was almost 200 lbs less... so rep that

[e1_griego]

Yeah, ok fine.

But it's not like the local store parking lot has a minimum weight class that you need to get down to.

I just think that it's useless for the majority of people to strip out their street/daily driven cars.

Alex

[chmercer]

mine was gutted

i put it back in

it makes the car shitty to ride in and offers no noticeable performance

totally pointless

[TheSquidd]

My rear seats got in the way of my rollbar, and my trunk carpet smelled like a fisherman's vagina. Other than that full interior for the win.

SO crazy.

[TheSquidd]

OG.

Rockin that tape deck.

[Kaotik25]

Thanks for the reply. Yeah i once gutted my s13, the noise was unbearable. Not worth it if it's gonna be used on street.

HAAHHHHAA!!

Yeah gutted interior is for the fucking birds unless its a dedicated track car.

Call me an old man (I am) but I'm putting all my shit back in this weekend. Thank god I kept everything.

save it for a race car... i learned the hard way that you can either have a race car or a street car. it can be somewhat of a hybrid of the two but it won't be a full street or full race car. so what's the point of saving a few lbs taking your interior out? plus, a/c is awesome for a street car. some can live without it, but i need it.

who wants to drive around in a car with a full roll cage, bucket seats, and strapping yourself in harnesses everytime you get in/out of the car just to school, work, etc? you'll just look like an idiot. plus attention to get your car stolen and harassed by cops.

I actually quite like driving with a bucket and harness in my temporary daily. Quite comfortable.

i dont know whut was wrong with your car... but other than my intake and kinda my header.. its a quiet ride... and even if it wasnt quiet... that whut the radio is for... but whutever.. we all have our opinions

[staygold24]

All mines gutted right now to give it a full cleanup everywhere. Nasty shit on the bottom of my rear seats. Anybody know what that little box in the middle of the rear seats is?

I hate all the noises my car makes without the seats so many squeaks that make me want to investigate everything in the car.

[wootwoot]

Shit, I might just start driving with a gloves, nomex suit, helmet, HANS device, and a full ligit harness. It "season" which means asshole old people and tourists like fuck that dont know how to drive. Think people would stay outta my way if I was driving fast fully suited up?

haha... thats funny... i dont know... but i can guarantee if u were in cali... even the old people would prolly try and race you... or start bump drafting you.. people ive noticed are dumb out here

just cuz i drive a 240... doesnt mean i always race it... just weekends.. like i get a couple of hondas and another 240 pull up to me yesterday and start reving their lil engines at me and they take off at a light burn out and shit.. and then a cop pulls me over and said i was racing because the other cars took off like that.. soo.. hopefully people arent as dumb out in florida....lol

Reason #1 to guttin my coupe was the smell.

I've noticed alot of 240s have the smell of rotting/mold/vagina. Dry ice for full gut mode.
