WOW, weight really does make a difference. ('01 GSR)
After reading through all of the "How to drop Lbs. from the teg" and all that, I decided to try also...
I pulled my subs/amp/crossover/capacitors/Lots of 4ga./+HUGE cd case...
Removed P.S. pump/lines/reservoir/brackets(belt was already disconnected)...
Replaced my spare/tools/jack with a can of flat fix...
And negligible stuff too (Teg manual, rear mats, loose change)
...ON MY CHEEZY SCALE...
The stereo setup was ~80Lbs.
The P.S. junk... ~12Lbs.
The Rear-o-car Junk... ~29Lbs.
Other was only ~4Lbs.
A total of 125Lbs. was dropped, and I can definitely say that it made a difference!! Second gear doesnt lag right after the shift... and leaving the line is much smoother. I think ill start pullin a few more things soon...
SORRY TO BEAT THE "WEIGHT" THREAD TO DEATH.
Gone...

add a passenger, and you're back where you were (but if you goto a track, autoX, it will make a difference yes ):B

now when you add a passenger that extra weight wont be as noticeable.
To the original poster, your setup is the same as my old, and when i started haulin people around, i could definitely feel the extra weight holding me back.
