Just like any other car, strip the interior, ac, exhaust, +other useless stuff(AWS etc.).

Re: Want Ideas on hardcore weight loss for GTO/3kgt

this thread has been coverd way way to much can we add part of this to the FAQ. For the most part the my understanding the only really heavy exterior part that is worth chaning is the hood. As for the rest its waht morphius said and in most peoples view its part of what you bought the car for. And the other common view is the car does well in skid pads etc... why do you want to strip it?

Re: Want Ideas on hardcore weight loss for GTO/3kgt

for "hardcore" weight reduction

1. Buy cage, a saw, a welder, and lots of CF parts.
2. Strip off all parts that you now have in CF
3. Weld in cage
4. Cut out all the "extra" stuff
5. Install new CF parts
and if you really want to get crazy
6. Redesign front and rear subframes so they are lighter

A few "bolt on" mods, a couple "cut, smash, hammer, weld, etc" mods, and a couple "why the hell do I need this/what the hell is this" weight reductions.

Re: Want Ideas on hardcore weight loss for GTO/3kgt

CF hood
Remove spare tire,
Light racing wheels,
CF Fenders (usually don't save much, fenders only weigh about 10-15lbs anyway)
Remove AC,
Aluminum Radiator (usually doesn't save much, but added performance)
The AWS from what I heard, isn't worth the hastle of removing it, it apparently doesn't weigh much, and requires alot of work (not sure, just what I heard)





OH...................Not sure how much you way, but slimfast could save you up to 50lbs when you are in the vehicle..............................so instead of 180-210lbs, cut down to 140lbs, and you've just shaved some pounds, and leave your girl at home unless she is less than 90lbs.
