I list and show the weight of every part removed. This Video shows how I have been able to remove over 300 pounds of weight from my Fifth Gen Prelude and am still able to keep it looking street car. I have two charts the show the importance of weight reduction. Also a New Logo! Let me know what you think!

I eliminated the abs, entertainment system, and the power steering out out of my 5th gen. I can't part with the AC. Just can't do it. It works awesome. A rare thing in the Honda world lol

Glad to see we both have some same weights on some of the parts you removed. Keep it up.

I hear you on the weight loss. I have a 5th gen eg sedan and I converted the car from power to manual rack and pinion. That took off 28lbs. Removing the not working ac system was another 30. Just that made the car feel way different.

i miss my 95 accord was basically a lude, i saved 800lbs by losing the car in an accident and going with an eg because i found it. the eg is fun all motor i was planning on boost but going with a 95mm stroke crank and higher compression on my sleeved h22a1 because i live at elevation and i need anything to make power.

I have two 95mm cranks I would like to use one in my spare h22a1

Another spot is the sun roof. Id like to run a carbon fiber lid instead

Carbon fiber hood, trunk, and fiberglass fenders will save a good amount of weight but not cheap.

@wbracing1027 3 жыл бұрын

I would love to do the hood and trunk I most likely atleast the hood

@dinoflagella4185 3 жыл бұрын

Yeah, the trunk is surprisingly heavy. If you do get a carbon fiber trunk lid. You’ll have to remove one of the tensions rods. If not your trunk will fly open with a thud when you pull the release.

Yeah those stock hoods are heavy af

On the front end there’s a vibrational damper behind the front bumper. I took mine out. I would guess it weighed about 7 lbs.

That’s a good number it keeps it heavy enough to be a luxury coupe 😂

16:33 FBI OPEN UP! lol Also man do you have a traction bar installed on the car? The original front subframe/crossmember it replace is quite heavy. Although, I don't know how much the traction bars weigh, they seem like much less material.

@BrpdogProductions 3 жыл бұрын

The traction bars actually weigh more I believe. They are less material but they are thick steel meant to be rigid

@jaleeskhan6606 3 жыл бұрын

@@BrpdogProductions Ah ok, right that makes sense. Thanks for clearing that up. I haven't experienced the difference from installing one myself but I'd imagine the benefit outweighs the extra weight?

@@jaleeskhan6606 I sure hope so! I joined the 850 fab group buy for one so ill make a post in one of the Facebook groups once that arrives. Clearance is a huge benefit for headers or downpipes. Also the caster is easily adjustable without having to shim the bushings in the stock subframe thing

I think I weight it once its a type sh so it has radius rods there's a 25lb saving to be had with innovative mount front sub bar.
