help guesstimate my weight reduction...

Over time, I have seemed to remove more from my civic, than I have put into it (with the exclusion of time). I no longer have all of the parts that I removed...therefore, I can't put them on the scale. I would like to know your guesses of the weight that I have removed.

Here are the removed items
-carpet (including trunk)
-spare tire, jack, cover panel
-power steering pump
-air conditioning compressor, condensor, fan
-stereo, speakers
-factory wing
-swapped 13" steelies for 13" CRX alluminums

I know that no one is going to be exact...just a guesstimate is all that I am looking for.

Re: help guesstimate my weight reduction...

-carpet (including trunk) (10-15 pounds if including sound deading material)
-spare tire, jack, cover panel (weighed mine and its like 15-20 pounds)
-power steering pump (i dont know)
-air conditioning compressor, condensor, fan(over 20 pounds) compressor alone on mine weighed 13 pounds
-stereo, speakers(no clue)
-factory wing(two pounds maybe)
-swapped 13" steelies for 13" CRX alluminums(dont see a difference)

And i couldnt find any drum to disc conversion kit for the 2001 civic coupe, so what can i do? should i custum design one for my car? If yes where to go and how much will it cost me?


I am too confused! I need help (proffesional help)

uh, i think you got the wrong post here...

as for Praxis, I am guessing that altogether you dropped about 60 lbs. I have held all of these parts in my hands (save the compressor and fan, but I know what those look like). So I say 60 lbs. give or take 10lbs.
