i know that magna r a heavier car. the second gen seems heavier than other magnas aswell. just wondering if there is any adjustment or removal that could change the weight a fair bit.
cheers

remove the engine and gearbox...

you will drop about 500kg straight away....

and also there will be a NOTICABLE power difference...

cant remember if its faster or slower *scratches chin*

Dunno man, do you want it for street & just lighter? or are you gonna race it?

take out the usual back seats, spare tire etc etc i dunno really ill go now lol

i just want lighter street use at the moment. just wondering if any parts could b takin out or replace with lighter compond materials

Well depends how much cash you got really.. if you wanna spend up issues $$ on lightweight engine components, etc etc.. could lose weight there.. but is it really worth it ? :confused:

yea not really. hoping there was some cheaper options aviable(not rite). cheers anyway

With WeightWatchers you can lose 10kgs for $10.

Go for a run everyday, about 10 mins a day will see you shed some kilo's :P

They're actually not that heavy compared to commo's and falcons (the TR/TS range anyway)

You can remove the spare tyre I guess...not legal but you can.

yea mayb i should start wokring out. oh well. 2 much effort. i've got my back seats and most of my dash out 4 painting but dont think it makes much difference. oh well. it was worth a try
cheers

Remove all the panels and the glass. Won't cost you a thing and you'll lose some major weight. :bowrofl: :bowrofl:
Nah but seriously if you replace some of the panels (bonnet, boot, etc) with fibreglass or carbon fibre ones and replace the glass with plastic you'll shed a few kilos. Carbon fibre bit's will cost you though. Like almost $1000 for a bonnet. :shock:

thx tommo. finally something useful

Simple, Carbon Fiber the whole car body. :nuts:

B.T.W - Those mods in ur sig, you're actually gonna do them to a 1991 TR 4cyl? Man save your money and just buy a 2nd Gen 6cyl. :P

i am looking at some kind of conversion at the end of finacial year. not sure what but its gonna b fast

remove the front passenger & rear seats, and when you fill up with pertrol put no more than 1/4 tank in.
