Default The weigh in

Just weighed in at 3280 with me in it. I checked my own weight when I got home and I was 183 fully clothed etc, putting me at about 3100. The gas tank was just a HAIR above the empty line meaning I had about 3 gallons or so left probably, although I'm heading home 2moro and will probably fill her up to max to see exactly how many gallons were missing. Stock weigh in is somewhere around 3300, so that puts me at about a 200lb drop. Not too shabby. Just the usual weight removal like, Jack/Spare, washer fluid is empty, sound deadener removed, testpipe instead of a heavy cat, etc. It just really shows ya how all the aftermarket parts add up. The stock DP is like 25lbs if I'm not mistaken and this one is probably like 10, the stock wheels I believe are around 22lbs (!!) these are like 16. I was pretty impressed to say the least.

Thanks alot guys.

Yea I was pretty impressed to say the least. Another 100lbs and um under the 3k mark, and really 100lbs isnt much at all if you think about it, since I havent dropped anything severe such as AC, PS, or have any light weight mods such as CF crap and lightweight seats. I plan on swapping in some 00+ celica seats, so I'd imagine they are around 25lbs since they arent electric like mine. My drivers seat if I'm not mistaken is around 40lbs, and the passenger is around 30-35, so if thats the case thats another good sized drop. DSM hoods weigh in at an ungodly 40lbs or so as well, not that I'd ever get a CF hood probably, but it would provide a huge decrease as well. I figure if I remove the engine thats another solid 400lb drop at least

But dave your tiny penis balances it all out
