rickya Posted July 10, 2007 Author Posted July 10, 2007 Well Im off to Miami in October & going to the National Z week at Daytona Raceway, as I may have nentioned, (always like to put that in wherever possible ) & am hoping to pick up some goodies if I can. Such as Motordyne Plenum spacer; Kinetix cats (depending on how heavy they are, anyone know?), JWT Popcharger; & AUC Eyelids, plus whatever else I can lay my hands on considering its 2.2 dollars approx to the pound!!

Guest prescience Posted July 10, 2007 Posted July 10, 2007 Kinetix cats weigh approx 5.5 lbs (2.5 kgs) each Quote
lomoto Posted July 10, 2007 Posted July 10, 2007 Kinetix cats weigh approx 5.5 lbs (2.5 kgs) each hand luggage Quote
Guest prescience Posted July 10, 2007 Posted July 10, 2007 It is worth noting that posts on my350Z suggest that the kinetix cats are 14-15lbs lighter EACH than stock cats (total weight). Crawford are also lighter but don't have figures for these Here's an old weight reduction thread also for interest ... http://www.350z-tech.com/forums/index.p ... opic=12846 Quote

Guest prescience Posted July 10, 2007 Posted July 10, 2007 Weight reduction is not a topic that crops up very often but as that thread shows, there is much which can be gained (or lost!!) 30lbs is 12 kgs == 1% improvement or 3 BHp. It can mount up (as can the cost ) Quote
lomoto Posted July 10, 2007 Posted July 10, 2007 From the US forum I like this guys approach to weight reduction "My setup: Driver Stock - 147lbs (heavy college drinking, shitty diet) Passenger Stock - 130lbs (annoying ex g/f + her emotional baggage) Driver Modded - 135lbs (healthier diet, no more soda and minimal carbs) Passenger Modded - Dumped annoying ex for 104lb cutie with zero baggage Total weight savings: 38lbs" Quote

rickya Posted July 10, 2007 Author Posted July 10, 2007 Excellent Me & the Mrs are allowed 2x23kg suitcases each, thats a total of 92kg plus hand luggage!!! Quote
rickya Posted July 10, 2007 Author Posted July 10, 2007 Best mod IMO is take the spare wheel out & put that tyre repair spray can in instead Quote
