Take a poop and shave your head before racing.

if it's a trailer queen and a track car; redo your entire wiring harness and remove all the junk u don't need.

u'll be surprised how much weight u get rid of.
yeah I helped do that to a friend's S14... re-wired the whole damn thing. Insane how many useless wires there seem to be in those cars.

Wow, that's a tall order. It's supposed to be sunny at the track tomorrow. If I get some time (which I didn't get today) I'll try to clean it up and take some pictures. It was raining off and on today and with a white interior and 2 people climbing in and out of it all day it's a little dirty. (I'm at a racing school this weekend). Either way I'll take pictures next week.

I'm really happy with the way it turned out and I think you'll like it too

Wish I could get my car down to 2480 without making it unlivable.
I'm sure I'll like it, and as much interest as there is in weight reduction I think there will be quite a few people who will appreciate your efforts and sharing.
