if its a gt, remove the fog light brackes and the brace in the bumper that attaches them, that alone is like 50 lbs

Also, how much weight do you think you would loose all together with a fiberglass hatch w/ lexan windows, FR manual rack, full D&D tubular suspension, aluminum heads, fiberglass hood, carburated, no spare, no ac, no ps, battery relocator kit?

I added some weight estimates:

get rid of:
a/c compressor, lines, condesor (thats what windows are for)
power steering pump, lines, rack and replace with manual rack
smog pump -10 #'s
get alluminum heads (loose wait and build hp) -50 #'s +more HP
rear seat -40 #'s
spare tire
change front tires to skinnies on drag lites
front sway bar ..only for track use, bad idea for daily driver
tubular k-member -40 #'s
change front seats to light weight race seats -30 #'s
fiberglass hood -10-15 #'s
Fiberglass Fenders
Fiberglass Hatch w/ Lexan window
Tubular A-Arms -10 #'s, but usually need coilovers

I wouldn't go w/ the fiberglass parts or lexan windows on a daily driver, + the lexan windows won't pass inspection.

Well, its going to be far from a daily driver (418W) (inspection, emissions, etc.). Its just going to be my "nice weather" & track car.

since it just nice weather and a race car, you should ditch the windshield wipers, pump, and the resevoir reservoir, might save a pound or 2 lol

88BlueGT

Well, I was thinking about ditching the wiper but than I was thinking... if its ever nice and Im far away from home and I get caught in a storm or something where I dont have a choice but to drive in the rain; its going to be bad enough with the wipers let alone without them lol. And I want it to look as "streetable" as possible (full interior, back seats, etc.)

Pull the brace behind the front bumper, bumper shocks

88BlueGT

Its already off But Im not sure if I want to keep it off though.... Im not trying to get hit and have something happen to my motor.

88BlueGT

Its completly stripped down right now (no motor, trans, interior, fenders, hood, bumper, etc.

I pulled mine when I put the lx front bumper on.
