Hi Nico Club! I had an old account but couldn't get it to work lately so I made a new one, anyway! I'm in the works of lighten up my Kouki, and I know this has been cover over and over again, but just looking for some input. So far I have completely gutted my trunk, except for my battery, removed my antenna motor, removed all sound defening, power steering delete, A/C delete, cruise control delete, front reinforcement bumper removed for large intercooler, lighter wheels, HKS hipermax II's which are way lighter than my old setup which were tokico blues with h&r springs, splash guards all removed, CF hood, fog light delete. I'm going to take out my back seats and panels, I also cleaned up any unused wiring. If anyone has input, it would be great appreciated!

the backseats barely weigh anything. but if yur looking for that drift-like feel. gut yur doors and replace the windows with plexiglass. wweighs a bit less. but theres only so many things you can remove before the car loses funcitonality.... ya know? make a switchboard to cluster all yur wiring together and organize it so you can delete the hvac and radio and window switches and wiper switch on the side of the steering rack as well as the headlight switch...... you can delete yur door panels and all interior panels..... depends how far yur willing to go....

Thanks for the input, I don't plan on changing out the glass, and the switch board isn't a bad idea.
