Weight reduction is
Weight reduction is addicting. Once you start it's hard to stop

Yeah man, gotta take out the
Yeah man, gotta take out the sound deadening ****, it's like 30 pounds, get different rims, saved another 40. Full a.c set up is 48 pound, but I dunno when I'm getting rid of it because the parents will get mad (I refuse to use the a/c anyway, so who cares?) I want some race seats too. I can also swap bumper supports and save like 20 or something. Bunch of **** to do. Expect a weight loss thread that's real once I've weigh my interior stuff.

I took out all my ac stuff
I took out all my ac stuff except the compressor. I just need to get a new belt. I think that weight reduction won't help highway millage as much as stop and go millage.

Why not take the compressor
Why not take the compressor out? I don't think weight matters that much, but you get crazy bragging rights. And also, I figure I'm going to punch it every once and a while, which is where the weight really helps. If I'm as lioght as possible I'll get more thrill when I do punch it and be less tempted to put a huge *** turbo on there.

Whatch your head when you
Whatch your head when you get in the car. I hit my head once on the top edge of the door when i took that rubber stuff off.
Oh, yeah taking rear weight out really helps in fast starts. I could barely do a burnout in my SL1 with all the weight in the trunk out.
