Weighed my car today...

[95vr-4]

I removed the washer tank up front, as well as the wiper and tank from the rear. Also, the power antenna. My next plans were abs and aws. The seats were a huge difference, as well as the suspension. How about emissions stuff under the hood? Theres a lot of junk under there.

maybe swap the mirrors with less fancy ones...(no fold in, no heated) suspension is a big one...I have no idea what the stock stuff weighs but I know my Tein is far less...only thing is stock suspension has a fantastic ride for cruising.

a smaller battery is another good one, I am running from a 6.5kg battery
on my car the rear seat belt retractors weigh heaps!
lightweight steering wheel?

aj my son mike vr4 with the same parts you have is 3580 empty, since then we have removed the complete ac. if i remember it is 42 lbs

[mcshooter]

when back over to 3si , only to try and find my post on what the ac weighed. could not find it. forgive me stealthee

[Austin@STM]

Yeah I wanna keep ac and cruise control. I'm not really sure how much weight is left (at least that I'm willing to loose), the only plans I have right now are the seats and AWS delete.

About another 1000 pounds It depends on how much time you want to put into it. It theres a day when you can remove the entire interior, there is all sorts of brackets, plates, extra bolts, and other crap in there that can be removed, and you'll never know with the interior back in. Airbags save a decent amount if you want to get rid of them.

Front and rear crash bars are a lot of weight in these cars.

My car weighs 2760lbs with almost a half tank of gas. I have gone through and removed just about everything possible. I had removed a couple hundred pounds at one point while still reataining a "full interior".

All it takes is a little time.

Already have a lightweight battery. How much do the rear seat belts weigh (w/ all the associated brackets/hardware)? I don't want to remove the seats because then it starts to look gutted...but no one ever sits back there so the belts can go.

Yeah your car is impressive to say the least

[Austin@STM]

seat belts do weigh a few pounds, also the trunk liner and plastics behind the seat drop a few pounds.

[Austin@STM]

Most of the stuff you actually see in the interior is the light stuff, its whats behind them.
