Hey hey
Just wondering where I can save weight if possible in my car without losing the back seat/ac/dash etc
Cheers

what do you weigh mate? any chance you could lose a few kgs? I mean a 10kg spare wheel is **** all but if you have a spare 20 you could run off then we're getting somewhere.
other ideas to make a street registered car lighter:
-Wear sandals instead of skate shoes.
-take the floor mats out.
-take the winding mechanisms out of the doors
-don't wear a cap (300grams saved)
-clear the coins out of the ashtray. in fact take the ashtray out.
-a full tank of fuel could be 80kg. run on empty as much as you can.
-valve caps on your wheels are good for a few grams.
-don't race after lunch (even worse after a steak dinner).
-if you are only doing a short run drain a couple of litres of coolant out.
-likewise for engine oil.
-get clear side indicators. the colour adds weight.
Or get a good tune or air filter or something that will give you the same gains. to make lightening worthwhile you'd have to do some serious work.
