    I've been bugging people for bolt on 2-piece rotos for years. That could be good for 35-45 lbs without sacrificing streetability and even more if you went with the ultra light rotors (for the people with drag only cars).

    Supercar makes the front ones with aluminum hats. The back ones do not weigh much. Thats where I concentrated my weight reduction efforts, just in rotating mass. You can even buy Advan Sport tires and drop 3 lbs per tire. Theres almost a 5lb difference between the same size tires in weight

    It's good, but honestly with it being a 96 RTTT and as much as I guess I thought was pulled out/lightened, I would have thought it was lighter.

    did you weigh the turbo/ manifold setup, because i know that a 42 is not exactly light.
