Weight Reduction


Recommended Posts

Thought I would create a thread which lists the weight of various parts and mods in the Corolla. I haven't pulled my car apart yet, but if anyone does it on the odd drag day occasion (or boredom) then would you be willing to weigh your parts? So we can have a list just like the Celica fellas do in this link. Even though a lot of parts will carry over, some parts will be different.

So far I have;

Stock

Interior

Jack and tray: 3kg

Tool set tray: 1kg

Spare wheel cover: 3.5kg

Interesting thread

I think the best weight reduction to is to lose some kilos around the waist.

I'll weight my 18 inch wheel and whiteline front sway bar tommorow.
