hey i was thinking of gutting everything behind the seats of my crx, i was wondering if anyone knew how much weight this would save thanks in advance

 

maybe 15 pounds.... i have mine super gutted.... in the real world your really not saving anything your just making your car look like a race car and having it super gutted

 

well the car is a street car/drag strip car, so i was just thinking of some ways to save some weight

 

yeah hes right its not much
spare tire and jack weigh the most like 10lbs then the plastic trims over the windows weigh like 1 lb a piece, the storage compartment is prolly 5 lbs and the sides are prolly 5 lbs

so really like 20-25lbs

if its a track car then sure go for it but if its a street car i wouldnt worry about it unless it was like mines ugly blue and broken

 

I doubt it even weighs more than 10lbs plus when you gut every thing out you hear 100 times more road noise. It gets annoying after awhile.

 

yeah thats what i was worried about, with how much more noise i would have to deal with since i do drive it everyday, i did take out the spare and the jack and stuff tho, well thanks guys for your opinions, im thinking im not going to do it now

 

Iv had the rear gutted ever since i did my motor swap so it doesn't bother me now. just take all the stuff out and try it for a day.

 

thats what i origionally was going to do, i was going to take it out, but keep it in case i ever wanted to put it back in, another thing is my gf lives out on a gravel road, and it sucks trying to keep it all clean all the time

 

Its not to bad i rather take all the a/c and heating stuff out the dash. Talk about alot of weight and if you decide to gut the front instead of the rear take the sound deadening stuff off the passenger side and not yours that way the passenger gets swap a$s and the driver doesnt. TRy it out and see how you like it

 

ok seriously, side panels at a pound each? Have you ever even taken them out?
anyway, heaviest items in the rear will be the spare (15-20lbs?), wiper motor, & storage compartment. The other stuff is all going to be a bit lighter but everything does add up. If I remember correctly, my car came out to be like 45 lbs. or so. there's more weight in the front

 

i already have heater a/c **** out, i was just wondering about the rear
