Message Here goes:
  • Seats( especially the drivers seat ) are pretty heavy. Install some Sparco Evos or similar product.
  • Get a dry-cell battery they only weigh ~15lbs.
  • Could replace the windows with lexan... some companies make a hatch peice for the Rx7 which is one peice plastic but I haven't seen any for the Z.
  • Remove A/C, stereo, or anything beginning with the word 'power'
  • There is a rear resivoir in the back that you don't really need.
  • Custom fabricate T-Top covers with carbon fiber instead of glass
  • Lightened flywheel, ud pulley, driveshaft( big gain here cause they are rotating )
  • Titanium exhaust
  • Remember it is a V6 so you aren't going to get down to civic weights
  • Carbon fiber hood weighs more then stock
  • keep factory wheels they are light
