Oem was 5yrs. Old & still starting car, but I could tell that it was getting weak.
Around 30lbs. For this one...2 gallons of gas heavier than Autozone.

more guys...keep it up!

I'm always taking my z33 to the limit with weight reduction...yes it's not for everyone but it sure changes the look feel and over all appreciation of how much weight can be saved.

Z33 Nismo start weight 3385
currently my car weights 3040+/- with ac and all glass

3.80lbs

Last weigh in was 2990 but i added a ton of aero.

awesome man!
someday soon, my Zed will be gutted

Has anyone looked into weight loss for the current tools and spare?

I have been doing research but it seems that people would just rather not drive with one. Anyways for the people WHO DO want to keep their spare and tools has anyone found an alternative tool set or lighter spare tire? I was looking at maybe a Bridgestone Tracompa-2 145/18/r17 (11lbs) for $167. Its hard to find exact numbers for the current 35lb spare but from my guess is that its at least a 9lb loss if the rim is 15.5lbs (estimated "17x8" inch enkei Rims). anyone know the wight of that rim?

Yes trying to save weight like this is dumb, i know. Will this make a difference on its own, heck no. I already saved weight in all the really important places and am just making plans for the future. I'm looking to try and build the lightest, super comfy 370z. This is just for fun. I don't really need it, just want it!

Also thanks for all the past work. You guys are awesome.

Are there any possible weight reductions on sway bars or coilovers?
I will guess that sway bars will always weigh more for stiffness?

Also how much weigh can i really save off rims?

Sways/coilovers I would not focus on weight loss, those changes are more geared towards other means (adding/subtracting) from those points is minor especially with how low they are to the ground.

Wheels can be pretty significant from factory, especially if you go from 19" down to 18" and also focus your objective on rotational loss not just pure weight loss.

you still exist!

I am still around, house, kid, etc. Slowly piecing my SC back together and working on the Silvia.

Anyone replace the stock Strut Tower Bar that weighs a ton?

Similar to a single bar like this picture:

I'm going to make my own light weight brace.
