Ef Civic diet.
I have been able to take a great deal of weight out of my ef. The next step will be to cut out the spare tire well and re tin over the hole. Thoughts on cutting the well before it is caged? Also tips to remove the sound deading on the outside of the car... Thanks Guys

Re: Ef Civic diet.
why cut the well if you are already way below weight? I'd just leave it alone and make panels to help the air flow around the well instead.
You currently have the freedom to move a lot of weight around to where you want it so I would just do that.

Because the car is not being built for any class. Merely to show how hard you can go with a d series

To answer your question, cut the spare tire well first then build the cage around it. As for the tar, easiest would be towing it into a sandblast shop or dip the car. If you're on a budget then an air scraper and wire wheel on a grinder will be your friends.

Sadly i am in ca so acid dipping is beyond the realm of possibility. We are barely allowed to have hot salt water to strip things down. Thanks for the input on the well
