Anyone know if weight reduction is worth the trouble. Im not going to the track, or hardcore, or anything. Just always wanna be a little faster. I have a 30lb subwoofer (just downgraded from my old 60lb) in the hatch, and am trying to comprimise. Anything I can ditch, besides the sub, its not going. Mabye the spare tire or something. They're a b***h anyways. Or is it even worth it?

i KNEW id get crap from it. My friends give me crap all the time. I love my music, and dont get flatties that often... Its compromise. Ill put it back in for trips, and just call someone if I get a flat in town. The tire was just a suggestion. Is there anything worth removing, that im not gonna miss?
taking easy little stuff out will just loosen up maybe 100lbs which is worthless. unless your completely stripping your car then its a waste of time if your not going to take out every thing that is not needed. if u want to go faster try spending some $$ and getting performance parts.
My hatch has a dash and 2 front seats. I do not have the metal bumper on the front only the plastic cover. I ditched 17in wheels for 15s. Its worth it if thats what you like. Theoretically 100lbs equals a tenth of a second at the track.jaredkay said:
If you don't care about your rear seats, take those out. Or if you really want to get into it, you can take you whole interior out and heat up the black sound deadening and take that off.
don't ride in it. That's at least 120lbs right there.
i gutted mine except for the 2 front seats,front door panels and the dash. i love not having people bummin rides off of me. when u get four grown men trying to cram in a civic its not pretty. so theres room for me and my girl when shes not driving her honda
f**k that man, I've got room for 4 ladies, the interiors has gots ta stay.
