<TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote, originally posted by --ryan.. »</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">i thought i would post the weight of the parts i have removed from my car for weight reduction purposes thus far:
entire A/C sysem: 46.5lbs
cruise control actuator: 3.5lbs
metal panel in glovebox door: 2lbs
hatch interior (except anything visible from inside the cabin): 9.5lbs
intake resonator (cut off from downward tube): 4lbs
spare tire, jack, tools: 29.5lbs
front tow hooks: 1lb
tar from trunk and some below passenger's seat: 7lbs
wiper fluid bottle + assembly (almost full): 5lbs
power steering system: 17lbs
passenger's airbag: 8lbs
moonroof sliding cover: 1.5lbs
rear seatbelts: 5lbs
exhaust heatshields(all): 5lbs
driver's airbag and wiring: 3lbs
drivers kneeplates: 3lbs
front passenger's seat: 34.5lbs (leaving in, but just checked)
center armrest/ebrake cover: 3lbs (will find net after type R cover)
entire abs system (lines, wiring, etc): 28lbs
rear windshield wiper: 3lbs
odyssey pc680t: stock29lbs-odyssey14lbs: 15lbs net
97+ rear underseat bars: 18lbs (6lbs each)*info on the bottom of page 6*
intake manifold support bracket: 3lbs
these are all actual measurements i have taken from my gsr, totaling 208lbs with 139.5lbs from the front and 68.5lbs from the rear. i have a complete interior (minus the rear seatbelts) and plan to keep it that way.
using stock wieght specs my gsr should weigh about 2459lbs.
dont reply with "weight reducton is stupid" or "removing xxx is stupid" or removing xxx is unsafe." all of this has been said before and i'm fully aware.
***not everything i've done is on the list and not everything on the list i've done, i have an excel workbook listing everything i've personally done so far. so dont expect the list on here to match up with the weight numbers i post for my car. also, everything on here i've weighed myself, i do not post weights from any other source.***
