The tiny weight differences you save by spending tens of thousands of dollars are easily outweighed by a little difference in driving skill, or even a little diet?

Oh wait, there's no driving skill involved in driving GTR.


but still the products are nice even tough they dont change much in the cars performance

Okay, the people who are asking what's the point of going for weight reduction on a heavy car are straight up stupid. But I do agree with the fact that if you are going for that sort of weight reduction,you should just take the seats out and not replace them with extremely expensive pieces of carbon fiber.

Like-- okay they look good, but if your intent is to reduce weight like that, I can't really imagine you'd be caring too much about what the interior of your car looks like.

I like those seats. It's not for everyone and that's exactly what I like about it. Keep up the good work guys.

This was exactly my point about spending way too much $ to reduce a little bit of weight on an already heavy ass car. Sure you can spend as much as you want if you got enough $ to wipe your ass, but it'll be pathetic to see if the driver's skill does not even live up to those mods.

Re-Read this...

at this point you're really just nitpicking because someone here doesn't like these parts.

so is it pathetic that a large majority of people on this forum buy wider (than stock) wheels and tires, and coilovers, and gut their trunks, and install strut tower bars and never track their cars?

by your reasoning, yes, but i don't agree.

fixing up your car has always been a way to express your tastes or "style", everyone has their own reason for wanting certain parts, sometimes it's just for looks. i guarantee pwjdm sells these carbon pieces to people who want them for the weight savings, and people who want them for the dressup aspect.

just get over it, not sure why you're trying to get everyone to agree with your point of view, everyone forms their own opinion. question here is, is it a tasteful mod, or a ricey mod. definitely not rice, in my opinion.
