Lost another 22-25kgs out of the nana this afternoon in readyness for York...there is more to come out yet!
Why did you have a garden pot in your car?
After working on the Williams I assume the yellow one is the same there loads of weight to remove.
2) Remove the bits of plastic holding the wires to the side of the car (route them roundbetween the outside panels and the interier panel.
3) Remove the seatelt pretentioner.
5) Remove the rear wiper and all associated pipe work all the way back to the pump them remove the pump and stick a bit of chewing gum over the hole. Also remove the electrical relays not used.
Still looks like you got fair bit of weight out there I didn't know the car had that much in in the first place. But how do you open the windows?
the dash and roof lining/sunroof, gonna take rear wip[er motor out as soon as find a blanking plug for hole!
You've still got side strips and stereo!
What you playing at Martin?
hehe headunit and speakers are a little luxury I've been treating myself too for a few months...lol Whole dash is coming out soon..
And you don't technically need bumpers as long as there are no sharp extrustions.
Hmm I'm not going banger racing! lol Some lighter bumpers would'nt go amiss though...they are not light as stnd.
Fookin hell.. madness :shock: I bet that thing ****ing flies. You won't have enough weight in there to keep the ****er on the ground!
I take it she's not your daily drive then?!!
PS - Is your camera broke? lol!!
you've still got the carpet in?????? thats about 10kg!!!!!!
Beware stripping can be addictive!
You running paint AND laquer???
Dash is coming out tommorow...to get the sound deadning from behind it!
You can also recover a lot of wiring if your feeling brave. Must have removed about 1/3 of the total wiring from the car, I really have no idea what it was all supposed to do, but the car still works so who cares.
Yeah there is alot of wiring in there....I don't have a clue what does what though so I don't want to rip out something essential! :?
It does take quite a while to make sure your only recovering the wiring thats not needed, but their is a hell of a lot of wiring that was never used for anything. With the dash out, its the perfect chance.
On the plus side the car feels faster overall I don't know whether it's psycological because there is more noise from the engine...but I like it!
What sort of performance difference is there from full fat to no fat?
I've found the hamster wheel quite effective, but I got very tired, very quickly.
I say take the wind mirror off. Remove the metal. Then mount the glass on a piece of balsa wood inside the wing mirror.
I reakon that would be another 2 kg's.
Take the passenger one off. You only need two mirrors.
Also id run with one wiper. Take the passenger one off and use rain X. if picks up loads of resistance to smooth airflow over the car.
Do it :D . Well, not the death or destruction bit, but you won't regret doing the first bit.
Nick Hill also does a bag replacement for the wash bottle that contains less fluid and weighs less than the plastic washer bottle.
