Here is video of the inside being painted :) kzfaq.info/get/bejne/neCpgq912t_Xop8.html

A lightened car just has THAT feeling to it. I can't wait to make my r53 lighter yet

She getting there slowly , fingers cross on the next run we get closer to that 11sec mark. Can't wait to see the lap taps now...

100lbs is not always a .1 in the 1320. Removing 💯 from a 1700lb car and removing the same weight from your 2500lb car will give different results given the same exact motor and trans is being used. 13.5 is pretty impressive for a 4 door...with cut doors and everything out you'll dip into the high 12's. Grab some cheap extra doors from pick a part, cut all 4 with lexan windows and you'll save around 160lbs there. Bumper supports, ac, ps, sound deadening, 9 pound battery, you can get your Civic to 2200.

I have just picked up your channel from a long time ago when I lost my KZfaq account, you have come very far with your car man. I wish you the best man!

Should of just got a coupe lol

Spraying 5lb of bedliner id think would dry less than that due to areosal and liquid evaporation

Another great video buddy and keep up the good work and hope all is well with you and your family and keep living life to the fullest

Shit I wish that I had you here to help me work on my Honda. People in North Carolina act like they don't even want to be friends. Lol. Maybe it's the way I look.

Yep, that weight reduction helps, let the haters hate. I do it to all my CRXs.

Great content! Gives me a lot of motivation to work on my hatch! Keep it up!

210 Count Down City checking in!

Nice you going to do a mirror delete for less wind drag.

Why when it comes to a gutted car it’s no longer a daily? People ride bicycles, motorcycles daily and they don’t have Ac , Noise dampening and insulation,

now time for a high comp forged bottom end and E85

I think you can take off the back doors and replace them with lightweight panels. This made me think, I wonder what would happen if you could buy a "barebones car", like "barebones computer"? No interior, no heater or AC, then add components as you like. Kit built special purpose cars? If one person owns and drives a car, do they need all those seats? I wonder what the barest requirements are? How light could a frame and axles and wheels be, if they only carried what was needed? And were stronger and made light by design? Half a century ago, my friend in college took a Porsche engine, doubled its horsepower, and put it in a beach buggy frame he welded himself. That thing could climb straight up a dune. That was where I learned to drive a stick shift, so for years I shifted fast at high rpm and never gave it a thought. Friends like that, who ask nothing for themselves, and help others, are rare. But we lost track and I wonder where he went. The cost to carry all that weight, much that is not needed, gets burned up in fuel and wear on tires. What would happen if the whole world fleet of cars and trucks and vehicles was built for minimum weight and more strength, and not so much things that get sold to us in the package that we never or seldom or probably don't need? Cut the weight, you need less power, less motor weight, less transmission size, less tires and axles. Interesting problem. I wonder if anyone has offered a prize for a minimal, functional vehicle? It was fun watching this. But I would like to see someone go the whole way stripping down the weight. And also see what would be the lowest weight and best performance and lowest cost - starting from blank sheet of design paper (or computer design tools now). Do you know that people on KZfaq hardly talk to each other? It is hard to have a conversation, let alone anything serious where collaboration and sharing tools are needed. It is not really a global community, or a set of global communities - everyone helping each other. Showing videos of things is NOT the same efficiency as sharing tools, diagrams, plans, processes, software, data, models, and linking to all the needed parts and background. It is NOT hard to share globally, but few are doing it. And good ideas like, lets use less fuel in cars - kind of get pushed aside, because people do little bits and don't work together. I think all those car races they keep everything secret to get advantage and "win". But what if everyone was working on helping the human species do a better job for everyone? Not just a few individuals, but everyone? If there were a contest, you could buy the heaviest and worst car to strip the most. Interesting problem. Too bad there is nowhere to donate money to buy cars to strip. You could take junked cars, with all their parts, not functional, but all that weight, strip and weight them. You could take cars that work, strip and weigh them, and test their performance and mileage. Are there schools that teach effective design? Or is everyone rewarded for putting the most parts on cars at the highest price? Richard Collins, Director, The Internet Foundation

Idk why but I love driving gutted cars haha makes it more fun somehow. Keep up the good work! Car looks and runs great!

You shoulda had a counter in a corner of the video as every piece you took out and weighted them it would add up so we coulda seen wheres and what was the most efficient time wise n stuff to remove vs weight

Can't wait until you take it down the track again

Looks lile mine now,I took everything out to paint and then lost all the bolts screws and clips🤷‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤣

You should replace your side glass with Plexiglas

If you like the wing leave it brother, but as a 42 year old who has been racing for a while im sure the reason everyone telling you the drag wing or whatever wing you go with wont help on the track is because you got FWD right or did you convert to Awd. If your still fwd you dont need rear down force to help keep rear end planted cause your not RWD however you seem very good with cars and prob already know this, but if you like the style of it leave it brother tell the people who dont like not to put it on there car.

Some one has been bite by a drag race “bee” 😅 no more dayli car now is speed time reaction , mans you will find out now you are your worst enemy in drag 😅 the hard ability to be always fast and constant. Good look In your new time !

Damn man no ac in texas is gonna be brutal, any idea on the curb weight?

F who ever said the wing hurts performance...lol I GUARANTEE on or off in the 1/4 mile it will make ZERO difference.

wow it really adds up thanks for the vid imma be doing the same with my mustang

How much for the carpet and door panels

Did you weigh all the interior panels, carpeting, and misc stuff you removed like rear speakers? Or is that stuff lighter than it looks and not worth mentioning?

Stop playing around with the silly supercharger. Pull the AC and slap your turbo kit back on

Should cut the metal outta the dash everything but the steering mount ..it was 16lbs I cut ✂️ from the dash

What wing is that?

How are you liking the street savage cams? I’m thinking of using them in my high compression turbo build but I’m curious about driveability and idle quality.

Hey I was wondering if I can remove the strip of metal that is underneath the plastic wiper cowl? Does it do anything

Did your suspension travel by much after the reduction ?

All you need to do now is swap an LS to make up for the weight reduction!

yeeee

BEAST 👻👻👻

Doing a transmission swap on my civic :D atx

What does it weigh?

Did u ever run 11's with this setup

For every hundred pounds shades 1/10

If u got a raw modded d16y7 civic ill buy it lmao

Hahah sickkk
