VP Drag Car

[v6nutz_2012]

Take all the carpet out, everything out the boot, centre console and stereo surround (may as well get rid of head unit too coz its kinda useless in a drag car), any speakers, ends of dash can come off, door cards
If you wanted to go extreme then removing all sound deadening from floor and boot (using dry ice, an old paint scraper and hammer), taking out anything to do with a/c and heater and taking out any wiring that isn't needed
As for the diff, 4.11 should be good

you can strip the steering column and get rid of the ignition barrel, replace it with a missile switch and a push button... ditch the dash and all stuff under it.

Only carry enough fuel for the run.
Full sized battery weighs about 14kg iirc - you may be able to use a smaller one.
Save even more weight by driving in the nude if you are desperate enough.

Sell those SS fog lights and use the money to tub it with a 4 link and 9 inch setup. Ditch the stock 15x6 rims and get the super light convo pro rims 15x4 front runners and depending on you rear end work 15x10s rear

Oh and some quality drag radial tyres like MT ET streets or proper slicks

Will need at least 12k for 12 sec QTRs, & no - I'm not joking, you need to build a very tough & bullet proof driveline to take this type of continuous punishment. Refer to these posts 1 & 2 for a guide, obviously leave out all the normal things in there, as they are for a proper performance full showroom ready resto - just remember that once you break it you have to get it home ...

Just drop a turbo RB in it..... Or s turbo LS....
Lol.

Weld the diff for instant locker or get a minispool when ya put some pintara 4.11 gears in, add subframe braces, 235 et streets on 15*7 rims on rear will be more than enoigh traction for it. And yeah just turbo the stock motor...
Should do good times for a coupla grand.
