I've been doing a bit of that in my AE86... but the reduction you'll see isn't particularly huge that way...a few hundred grams at best. fine if you're going for every last ounce though...

Obviously you weren't doing a proper job. Things like chassis rails, diff housings and windscreens could have alot of weight drilled out of them :)

holly crap thats going a bit to far I think,
Gotta love the way they remove the body kit!

We're sure to check every orifice for puppies and kittens before carefully removing the air dam with a nearby curb. Feet, saws and angst-ridden fists make very effective tools for quickly and efficiently removing the rest of the body kit.



Thats a hillarious link.

Yeah, its been around for a while.

But the phrases "chicks dig convertibles" and "if you want something to stop existing, the Milkwalkee Sawzall is the tool for you" have always stuck in my head.
