How in the heck could you strip out 600+ lbs!? PS, A/C, light brakes and all the interior would only be like 300 lbs...

Its way more than you think...

weight reduction to this point is stupid unless its just a track car... IMO
why have the car if you cant daly drive it comfortably

stripping the car is not the only way to lose weight.

you could also replace lots of factory parts with aftermarket parts, such as lighter brake components, lighter flywheel, gutting your doors, lighter suspension components, lexan glass, lighter exhaust, and pretty much anything else you could think of... of course, removing reinforcement beams for safety would only put you in jeopardy if you drove on the street and happened to get t-boned by a 4000 lbs vehicle... think about it. is it worth it if it's not a track *****?

everyone moans about stripping for street cars, but I know I spend hours before events prepping the car. I've turned stripping it into a pre race tradition, then when you're done, it all goes back in.

I've got my GSR down to 2480 w/o driver, while still maintaining full ITR interior, stereo with sub, and all the power options. I took out the sound deadening junk, stripped A/C, P/S, and the rear wiper, the rear seat belts, and a few other things.

It's still comfortable to drive, and now 170lbs less than it was before.
