The 370Z Weight Reduction Thread

Another really easy weight loss tip: drain all of your windshield washer fluid then add back just a little (in case you need it). Might be worth a good 8 lbs of weight savings or so...not really sure. OR, just remove that huge washer fluid reservoir altogether!

I calculated my weight savings at around 80 lbs...and that includes new battery, no spare (keeping the subwoofer though), lighter tires, HF cats, lighter exhaust....but I am going to add an oil cooler (probably +8 lbs). Realistically, I'll also be running about 1/2 tank of gas...so I HOPE my total weight will be down around 3230 (I have touring with sport pckg).
