I just pulled most of my interior from the seats on back. I would guess its about 80 lbs. Before I continue with the front, I just wanted to get some other input on this. Is losing ~100 lbs. worth the the hassle. My stock exhaust has a leak somewhere and it sounds like I'm a bumblebee in a soda can when I take off quickly, but I plan to get it fixed soon...assuming I have money lol. Anyhoo, opinions?

 

mmm....i would take those rear speakers out and sound detoning, the sound detoning removed is about 10lbs. what are you looking to do with the car that your stripping it?

 

To be honest. I just did the same thing on my Integra and I dont like it. I guess its all personal opinion, but I'm plan'n on put'n my interior all back in this weekend.

 

my rear is guttted but i left the carpet covering the floor and my panels on so it looks somewhat clean. other than that there is nothing behind the panels or under the carpet

 

Love the Tool Box. Real Racers carry tools

 

As a general rule 100lbs=.1 sec in the 1/4mi

Damn homie your set up is crazy clean good job..

just thinking, couldn't you just lose all the crap behind the back seats and still keep the panels that show in the car. You know cut the panels in half, from the trunk part. After all no one is gonna look into the trunk. Just a thought

How much weight did u loose?

 

haha thanks for all the comments, i always keep my tool box with me, now a tool back actually. last time i weighed in before my abs removal i was at 2995 without me in the car, stock weight i believe is 2665

 

I drove my integra for a while when it was gutted and i didnt notice any difference. I just put the stuff back in after i finished painting it. Looks a hell of a lot better...a little quieter.

uummmmmmmm, so it weighs more now?

 

im sorry it weighed in at 2295

 

I've had my car gutted like that, it wasn't worth doing for me, my ride comfort suffers too much. Road noise and exhaust noise is much louder. But she definitley was quicker, I have the track times to show that! It was fun for a while, but not how I'd ever want to keep my car permanently.
I weighed all the parts I removed and posted the weights up here---&gt; http://www.clubintegra.com/boa...=2913

 

i don't mind the road noise at all, the exhaust noise does get annoying after awhile i guess

 

destroying the interior of a car for 2 tenths of a second...Ill pass

sexy, loving the setup, im personally gonna do something almost exactly alike just diff colors, and i would make a carpet for the back cuz it looks ugly w/ that thown back there like that =/

 

I just gutted the interior of my da and I love it. Looks good and saves weight. I'll never hit the 1/4th so i don't care about .10th of a second, just always loved the look of gutted cars. Can't speak on the exhaust noise, since my baby doesn't run at the moment.

 

your tool box probably weigh 20 pounds alrdy hahha
