time to dig this one back up from the grave...
So, now that im unemployed, and still trying to upgrade the 2, i figured i'd help in the of the weights of the things i decided to take off the car as best i can.
First, the reservoir for the washer fluid, holds what seems to be 1 gallon of water, i googled it and it says water weighs about 10 lbs. plus the weight of the plastic container is about 1.5-2 lbs with the water pump attached to it.
next, i found this weird hard plastic triangle shaped mount underneath the engine bay attached to the sub-frame, doesn't seem to do anything, the car is running fine without it, seems to weight about 3 lbs. i threw it away so i can't test the weight, but it was solid rubber on a metal mounting bracket so it wasn't lite.
next, i cut the lines for the air bag/air bag sensors, lost about 1 lbs in wires there, but the best things to get rid of if your using and aftermarket steering wheel like me and harrisracing is, ditch the stock air bag which here is listed as 4lbs, also behind the stereo attached to the body of the car, is a small ECU looking thing, it's the ecu for the air bag. about 2lbs there, plus, underneath the front bumper support, next to the headlights, are 2 air bag sensors maybe weigh about 1.5lbs for both with the wire looms and wires 6 inches long attached to them.
last, well im still poking around for more things to remove so stay tuned in case i get something else, or harrisracing does as well. Im going to weigh my 2 soon, i have already removed many things that HR has well, spare tire/jack, heat shield on turbo, headlights (i have a phoenix power front end conversion, made of only fiberglass) airbag stuff, A/C compressor & pulley, a/c condenser, SSAC down pipe, with a 3" apexi b-pipe, and a blitz mandrel bent Nur-spec exhaust, which by the way is very light for it's size. my personal goal is to loose 250-300 lbs, i think without removing all the interior/panels/stereo that is going to be hard. hell, even 200lbs lost would be nice
