Stevo Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 (edited) Jevansio on here used to be quite into his weight saving and if I remember correctly, posted up some interesting threads with his results. Here you go (quite a long thread though!): http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?228993-Jays-1300kg-Weight-Thread&highlight=weight+saving Edited January 17, 2013 by Stevo (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanisLupus Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 not sure if thats the right link Right link to what? It's a weight saving site... There are explanations of weight saving possibilities and the weights of many parts. There is a calculator too. What more would you want? ^^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wez Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 If its not a dedicated track car I would leave all the interior intact Since my car went pure track use its hardly used, a fast comfortable road car would get a lot more use IMHO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
