Depends on what you think is practical & financially feasible (and keeping the car legal for street use of course :) depending where u live),

Take out the spare wheel

Remove all the excess crap out of your car like carpet mats, cds, magazines etc.

Replace the windows with that lexan plastic (whatever it's called)

Replace bonnet, boot & doors with carbon fibre replacements...

The list goes on and on

Wat I've personally been wanting to do on my car is get a replacement bonnet & bootlid in carbon fibre but get them colour coded to my car so they don't draw any attention from the police :D

Removed (starting from the back):

Boot Lining / Carpet / Plywood Spare Wheel cover etc

Jack

Rear Seat

Rear Seat belts

Rear Speakers

Rear Parcel Tray

Steel Backing Plate between the battery and rear seat

HICAS

Rear Wiper / Motor

Superlight Weight Wheels (17 Work Equip Tri Spokes)

Car Carpet (not noticeable if you leave floor mats in at the front)

Entire Air con system, including coil inside the dash, compressor, cast iron brackets. (Kept heater though)

90% front bar reo, fitted fibre glass front bumper

Front indicators (rewired parkers as indicators)

Air bag steering wheel

Plastic Linings Inside the guards

Bonnet Lining

Splash Guard

Replace factory front seats with something lighter and better holding

Fibre glass Bonnet and front guards

Its pretty hardcore.. but see what you can do without..

    • The real question is, on some of those wild roads they call highways, how many times did a farmer in an old ute from the early 2000s blaze past you over double lines?   Tassie is a wild and really cool place, and after doing a work related road trip there January of 24, I understand why Targa Tasmania is ran there, and is so tough to do well at! We had a brand new Camry Hybrid that handled quite nicely, and thankfully weren't in an old car, because cresting some of those hills in a 100kmh zone for it to suddenly be like "surprise f**kers, this is a recommended 30kmh hard right turn" wouldn't be pretty. We weren't racing the Camry around, but we weren't slouching in the bends either. But my lord those old farmers know their old clapped out utes, and those roads, as they were absolutely hammering it!   You're also super lucky to make it up to Mt Wellingtong this time of year. It's often road closed with snow/ice! Also, I hope you hit up Salamander Road in Hobart for some insanely good food (I highly recommend the dimly lit Irish pub for a Guiness Pie, or even the bangers and mash!!!)   How long did the Ferry take to get across? I want to do a road trip of Tas on my own time, but I get horrifically sea sick, and I don't want me on the Ferry, just the car 😛
    • So far so good, about 30km on it so far and nothing out of sorts yet thankfully
    • Look at @Kinkstaah's thread on the issue.
    • Hmm not really, I'd say its race car life or modified car life when you make 3 or 4 times the power Nissan designed the car for lol. 
    • I'll let others with more breakage chime in, but I can't think of anyone who had a problem with the standard centre plate before they had a problem with the standard gears - the plate generally just gets replaced for safety when the gearset is upgraded. As for the gearsets, its not like they are OK at 600Nm and break at 601. Their longevity is a combination of how much torque you are making and how gentle you are on shifts (or not).
