I new to this. I was driving a auto matic lexus IS300. and i was racing a civic vtec and everything. i beat him but he kept up, 3 cars behind me. I finally knew that weight is also a big factor in running it. so my 92 prelude needs to be light. SO anyone that wants to help, tell me what i need to do to make my prelude light as hell

 

Take stuff out and replace parts with lighter parts. It's not that hard, it just usually means sacrificing comfort.

Mine should be under 2200lbs by now...

 

pretty easy, just buy as much carbon fiber parts as possible.
take out A/C
take out seats(except driver)
take out all interior
get smaller, lighter wheels
loose some weight if your fat
take out engine(if needed)

 

hey hawkze do you have any updated pictures of your car all lightened?

but yeah...take out the a/c and cc and p/s and misc bolts and stuff from the bay

Try to search....

 

in my 5th gen i gutted everything like ....rear seats, trunk lining, rear panels, and spare tire cover

 

Light weight flywheel kills two birds with one stone. Up to 12 lbs lighter, and you free up some power

I'm in the middle of a couple weight reduction projects right now, so I'll try to post pics after they are done. I guess the things that weren't in the other pics would be the Civic radiator, JDM front bumper support, D2 aluminum coilovers, CF mirrors, material cut from the doors, the dash will be gutted, Innovative motor mounts (no front mount needed ), and....I think that's about it.

 

you didnt trade an IS300 for a 92 prelude did you??

 

that's what i was thinking
