    Last weigh in was 2495, plus me = 2650. I'm hoping to be just under 2600 now.
    M30 + C4 auto trans, 10 point cage is a lot of weight. There's more weight to loose, like windows & door bars, but I think this is good for now.

    new exhaust is soooo light compared to the old steel one. If I were to guess it's 20lbs lighter.

    Car is deff louder, not like a lambo that's for sure.!




    I see shoots and wheelie bar in your future.

    More weight reduction.... 4" aluminum .065" thick tubing to replace the 4" steel.
    It will start from the down pipe by the trans all the way out the back. Switching to aluminum is around 15-18 weight savings.
    More interested in what it will sound like more than anything else.

    She's road worthy again. Switched the low beams to the high beam buckets.
    Switched out the old cluster to a euro one, now the MPH works..
    Few things left on the list:
    1. Remove front sway bar
    2. Fabricate gas pedal
    3. Fabricate new 4" aluminum exhaust
    4. Install trans temp gauge

    Some random pics
