No, sorry if you guys misunderstood. I'm not asking how to lose 100lbs, i'm saying that there is something that weighs +100lbs on the USDM evo that is absent on the JDM model, and it has something to do with crash safety. If I run across it again i'll post it, i'll search tomm.

Merry xmas

Dude, that was a waste of thread. You have to communicate your ideas better.

If you open a topic like this: +100lbs US Evo, possible to remove?


People are going to respond on how is possible to remove up to 100LBS from your Evo. Either you have to be more specific or you are going to confuse a lot of people..

Merry Christmas!

Well, if you read my actual post it mentions nothing other then what I was asking. I think I was relatively clear

I'm going to try to see if I can find what i'm talking about then we can discuss

Merry xmas all~

After just going through a crash myself, and suffering a broken wrist and broken rib, My recommendation is DO NOT REMOVE ANY CRASH PROTECTION.

That is all.

You can remove much more than 100 lbs if you put enough effort into it. You do compromise sanity/noise though.

I'd leave the crash saftey stuff alone and work on the other little things that add up.

Its all about tricked out parts. find parts that fit like oem but weigh half as much and are twice as strong. now a full carbon fiber shell or frame would be nice. hehe.
