i will not mind if a admin moves this topic, as i dont know were it really fits in... but i would like to know about lightening the vibe, and i am willing to ask if you guys have any estimates on what some of the parts weight, i noted that a 200 pound weight reduction would result with the same mathmatical in power to weight terms as a 14hp boost, which is significant, but since weight reduction usually involves taking things out of a vehicle, and then reseling them sometimes , i was just curious as what some o fthe parts may weightheres what ive thought of just asking if you guys have any clue what these parts would weight..Rear Seats(both)Metal Hood(just wondering incase some peopel do start making fiberglass parts)Spare TireTool Kits, accessories in back etcStandard WindhshieldAir Conditioning system(im not gonn ado this, but if any of you have a clue how much this weighs it would be interesting to hear)anything else...? side panels, doors and trunk in fiberglass would be nice but nobodies doing it yet, how much would it help anyways 50pounds, or like 150 pounds? just for that alone?
i know its your car but the vibe really isnt a race car. id add more power before i rip out interior parts. stripped cars thats still slow is rice.but a mod that will really help is lightwieght wheels and tire you can get up to 50 pounds off there alone.plus smaller tires=better gearing. i ditched my spare and i didnt notice a difference in 1/4 mile so i put it back
look my sniggies, i had a strizz-oke in my brizz-ain okay,you know what im saying. so i cant move all good. but thanks for mentioning that .thank you very much.athf4evr. click here! you know you want to!!!
thank you for helping me avoid ricyness, i wasnt aware of the association of stripped cars, but yes that makes sence, the wheels do sound like a good idea!, practical too
