"Simplify, then add lightness" - Colin Chapman
Looking for tips that you guys are using. I will update the list as the good ideas roll in. If you have weighed the parts, that would be incredible.
So far this is what I have:
-Lighter wheels (I have 16x7 SSR Type Cs = 11#)
-E30 M3 Aluminum Control arms VS regular Steel Control Arms
-Aluminum calipers( ie Wilwood) VS Steel calipers
-Floating rotors or Drilled rotors
-???
Im sure a coilover setup would be lighter than a spring/ strut setup
Another idea I have thought about lately is the early model struts VS the late model. Smaller strut = less weight?
Anything else?
