Righto, ive finished stripping the Interior of my S13, even got rid of the Tar, only have the door cards, seats and dash left.

How much weight has my cars diet helped it to shed ?

Si
 
enough to be very noticeable:) I never weighed all the stuff that came out of mine, but if you go and drive it'll you'll see its enough to be worth the blood, sweat and tears :wack:
 
My 14a lost in excess of 100kg's.. The best thing to do is weigh all the stuff you took out, or just get the car weighed and subtract that from a standard 13 :)
 
only been in astripped out mini before(such a thing:P) but it was ..balfwe you know what im tryin to say like it had nothin non essential to driving in it.. and it sounded mental (more noise :thumbs:) and much quick

you lost 100kg.. damn thats so much .. sooo much..cars shouldnt ever have that much in them in 1st place... sooooo much
 
well so far, and ive still got at least 10kg of sound deadning scum left to remove and fit my 1 bucket seat, ive lost 110 kg.
suppose once ive ditched both seats, fitted my bucket and removed sound deadning it be around 130kg or not far off :nod:

If you are wearing a full harness you won't get near the airbag anyway. It will just burn your face if you are not wearing a helmet.

I had to take the interior out of my car to get the welding done and the car suddenly drove so nice that the interior was never put back in.

As for airbags, I can't stand them, I know of too many problems they have caused people.
