Re: lighter eg6 (b16a extreme parts)
what model is it?
cx vx dx etc ???
lots of stuff you can pull in the engine compartment,
ac, ps, wswashers sys, all the splashgaurds, any irrelevant brackets and such.
pull the rear seats, and whatever interior pieces you feel comfortable pulling,
freeze/remove the sound deadening tar
race seats(they make crazy light carbon/kevlar ones)
lightweight battery
headers,
titanium exhaust
you can even get light tires. toyo t1-s are some of the lightest out there.
all that will add up to some massive wieght reduction!
not all free mods however

Re: lighter eg6 (Tad)
the car is civic eg6.
i already have small batery.
i want a full interior car, so the titanium exhaust and the carbon seats are very interesting, how many kgs are such seats with the base. The honda seats are about 15 kg with the base.
about the titanium exhaust, i have not found something like the one i need, i already have the toda header wich has 60mm colector and i need a decat exhaust with 60mm pipe if possible to follow not the common way but to go with the less curbs under the fuel tank.
does anyone knows any brands?
thanks

Does it need to stay street legal?
Removing bumper supports and door bars is good way only for racing.
Lexan windows
C/F fenders
its a matter of how far you wanna go and how much you wanna spend.

Re: lighter eg6 (civichatch95md)
the rsr gt II has no bends in it and i think it might come in titanium, if not them try buddy club or maybe fujitsubo. I know for a fact that there is a tanabe ultra medallion in titanium, so you could check that out.
