since u got a 90 ii know u got door seatbelts...
IMO get some 88-89 seatbelts and doors... the 90-91 doors are reinforced and are very heaviy compared to the 90-91
thats the best weight mod u can do now!

also, your times seem a little high for that weight... just don't sound right

oh well the reason for that is because i have done more lightening to the car since that run, that run was the car with a stock b16, and the car in stock apparance so 2127 lbs, and it was 38 degrees at the track , and i did nothing but spin,


as far as the doors go, im going to gut them soon anyways, therefore i will have lexan windows

w/ lexan is it easy to just kinda measure out the dimensions of youor window, ,or trace it, then draw it on the lexan and cut it out and then replace the original glass?
