Just wanted to show you guys some pics of my progress. My goal is to go from 3300lbs down to around 3000lbs even. If I can get it down to 29xxlbs, even better! So far I would say I've taken about 200lbs off the car.




I'm probably going to keep the dash and center console along with the carpet. I took the passenger seat out (about 40lbs) along with the door panels, speaker... even took the radio out.


I know my light weight battery is ghetto rigged in there, but I plan on relocating it to the trunk with a proper mount.


And since I took out most of the interior plastics, I found a new place to mount the Nismo plaque. Fits pretty well here

Hopefully it will be a track car. As of now I'm working in Texas till next year. My home is in Wa state... So it's really hard to do anything with the car right now. But in the mean time I just want a really light weight street car. I was inspired when I saw a YouTube video of this newer lotus... Yeah it didn't have as much power as the nismo but the car only weighed like 2700lbs and was really quick. I know I'll never get my car that light but if I could shave around 300lbs and have full bolt ons, it would be a beast!

lighter wheels... lighter exhaust will help you as well. OH! and some carbon fiber will help, just color match it.
