New Car?

Re:New Car?
if you cut out the front and rear bumber supports, half the rad support, cut out the inside of the passenger door, cut out the crash bar inside it, cut out the rear hatch and remove the wiper motor, thats alot of weight. rear seat belts.
lexan rear windows, a small asa mini gas tank (ghetto fuel cell) carpet, tar paper, dash and accesories, heater core, firewall blanket.
if you do that, it changes the car so much. there are also some supports inside the car that you can unbolt. But now your car feels like a big mushy shopping cart. next up is a role cage and upper and lower strut tower bars.

Re:New Car?
i haven't done all of that... I'm kinda addicted to handling mods now...I made a rear strut tower bar and it made so much difference. im hooked... my plans are...
-go trough the car and weld up all the joints, most joints are only spot welded from the factory.
-custom upper strut bars (triangle front)
-custom lower strut bars
-roll cage tying into all the stress points of the car.
-custom front tracion bar, clevis mounts.
-polyurathane bushings, and in some machined metal bushings.
-welded motor mounts.
-front inner fender braces.
-upper front brace.
-battery relocation.
-fill the frame with industrial foam
-switch over the teg front struts,(i got rear already, 8 ways baby) 92-95 upper balljoints (you gotta cut out the strut tower a bit)
- EG sway bars.
-and some ------- pimp tires mounted
-15 inch rims to clear my Type R brakes
