Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

I'll Start...
1. Obviously remove spare, mats. How much will this save?
2. Battery Kit. Saves 30lbs
Let's keep this to a car that needs to be driven regulary on the street and the cost reasonable.
getting light is expensive - and totally depends on what you want to do with the car as some mod's may not be advisable for the street.
* you can use any fixed seat in the 996 not just the GT-3 seats. Sparco, OMP, etc are options
weight gains of at least 20 lbs are as follows:
rear seats and seatbelts and mounting crap: 25 lbs.
muffler bypass pipes: 55lbs
cf hood: 20lbs or more depending on how much u wanna spend.
GT3 or lighter seats: 50 lbs. roughly
spare tire and tool kit: 40-50lbs.
----------
lighter battery: 30 lbs.
lighter rims and brakes: depends on rim and brake choices but will be noticable.
light flywheel: don't remember but wasn't it like 20% lighter rotating mass.
the stuff above the line i've already done and the car is noticably faster and has more pull and is fairly cheap to do.
rims brakes and flywheels start to get pricey but i'm sure would make also a noticable difference.
Thanks DeAd-EyE,
This is exactly the kind of info I was looking for. Do you know where I can get the muffler bypass pipes? Do you know if anyone has a sound clip?
How much do the stock wheels weigh?
