Maybe I missed it in the thread but how much does stock flywheel and clutch weigh?

Do the chassis dampers really work or are they dead weight for a track car? How much do those things weigh?

Is there nonfunctional weight that you can pull that won't greatly impact function of a daily driver? Looking for weight I can pull from front of the car mostly.

How much does stock Nismo steering wheel with airbag weigh?

Is the glass in the stock windshield the lightest you can use? Is there aftermarket glass that is lighter?

The flywheel with dampner is about 30.9lbs from what I read elsewhere. On avg. a aftermarket flywheel is about 17lbs due to it doesn't use a dampner. Course you'll get more chatter. But who cares?

So far as glass I know a couple guys have used Lexon glass. It's defiantly lighter. You'll have to read up on it so far a durability and all. This way you can gets some tear aways.
