Benji, you should remove all the paint off your car... Would be a saving of several Kgs I would think, and about as useful as removing boot carpet and number plate plastic ;)

What are you talking about that 70g should take at least .5 of a second off a track time :laugh:

Then spray in yellow and get all the chicks eh? ;)

Hows your beast going Ant? Any results? I am excited!

:whistling:

Hahahaha.

If you think about it, weight reduction is the CHEAPEST way, to improve power to weight ratio.

E.g. Stock S15 = 147kw/1200kg = 0.1225kw at flywheel per kg of weight

now if I was to delete 150kg out of the car....then this is what would happen

147kw/1050kg = 0.14kw at flywheel per kg of weight

To put it in perspective

I'd need to be making 168kw at the flywheel to achieve a power to weight ratio of 0.14kw/kg with a 1200kg S15

Thus!!!

168-147kw = Equivilent of 21kw gain

No results yet, hoping I get a call sometime this Arvo to find out how it went... I'm very keen also.

I think benji would have to shave all body hair, and possibly remove seatbelts? Haha

So by your idiotic logic then you will need to remove over 200 parts off your car the way you are going in order to go faster!

You sir, are a fool! :no:

Send me a message when you know as i am keen to find out :D

And Benji, try spitting and not swallowing and you should save some weight :laugh:

I THOUGHT you were told you werent allowed to cause this sort of thing or TROLL on here anymore? If you get me in trouble for encouraging it then i'm not gunna be happy! :dry:

Haha, I'm not trolling.

I am trying to become more D.I.Y minded, so it seems the easiest D.I.Y thing that I can do is delete things haha.

I've still got to see the mechanic about brakes, I dropped by the workshop at around 5.30pm yesterday and everything was closed up =\

I need to get one of those last 15 track day spots

    • Where is the warning "That this thread is super old"   I just went into a 5 year old thread, went to do a reply, and couldn't see anywhere obvious a warning of it being super old
    • Duncan is correct. Pitwork (and Toyota's own cheap brand "Drive Joy") were primarily created as brands to sell other manufacturers car parts. It would be weird if Nissan sold parts for Toyota vehicles with a Nissan logo on it, so they created Pitwork to sell parts for other brans Toyota, Honda etc. They are not the same as Nissan genuine parts, although they *do* meet Nissan's standards for replacement parts. They aren't supposed to be a substitute for genuine parts, but a cheaper alternative that is better than Ebay fake parts from you-know-where.
    • Thanks GTSBoy, much easier to work with it now it's free!  
    • I _think_ that one has a christmas tree or some other retainer spike into a hole in that panel under it. Come in under it with thin scredrivers and just pry it gently up. If you rip the ears off the retainer pin....so what? Just stick it back down after with a bit of race tape and carry on with life.
