I didn't weigh my Fugimura hood, but just in holding them both during the install I could not tell any noticeable difference. Unless you are going to make the Z

I didn't weigh my Fugimura hood, but just in holding them both during the install I could not tell any noticeable difference. Unless you are going to make the Z a dedicate race car I'm not sure the weight difference is that big a deal in a hood at the whp we are running. The biggest deal is to get heat out of the engine bay in an efficient manner.

True. Most guys upgrade to 20" wheels and that has a much bigger impact on performance than the weight a hood would
