weight IX project questions!
weight IX project questions!
first I spent lots of time to find evo 6 TME and Evo 7,8,9 weights! ....
As I know, EVO6 TME = 1380kg , Evo 7,8,9 = 1470kg .
My target is = creating a Weightless IX. ( I'm not a track racer but I want to feel weight savings at my wheels like HP !!! )
I know amateur things for this thread... for example : if I pull up : air conditioner,
window automatics , center diff , ( think to install cusco 1.5 limited) .... and all stuff in the car like back seats ... etc....
anyone makes like this way ? and what's your cars kg ? I think I will save 100 kg ... but chancing the diff is more complex job I think !!! ...
please only proffesionals post opinion about this thread....

I think that its a rediculous idea as the cost to benefit ratio is horrible. If you're set on doing it, beyond what you mentioned; replace door and rear window glass with lexan, carbon fiber doors, mini battery, aftermarket coilovers, lighter wheels and tires, bumper beams from and rear, AMS carbon fiber roof, aluminum 1 piece driveshaft, light weight flywheel, light/underdriven pullies, ditch HID's if you have them, light one piece driver/passenger seat, etc.

what can I do for loose 100 kg ?
Here is some good info for you. In the future don't be so lazy and search and find this stuff for yourself.
In this link you will find a picture of an excel file with weights and the actual excel file also.
