Ben said:cant believe u destroyed a perfectly good car
kristian said:Then its onto the Custom Polished stainless Twin Exit ( Jap Slash ) out of the complete Fibreglass smooth boot
paddymarsden said:then i was completely confused when u said your not going to have a rear window lol
That would have to be SOME diet... I doubt you could get it to weigh that amount, even beachboy only just made 700kg, he was taking every last screw out for weightloss..kristian said:To make things easier to explain..
Im also aiming for a Sub 500Kg car... which will see the biggest performance increase.. with acceleration, braking and cornering...
Will you be taking away the wing this time, the inside one?kristian said:So, With the full rear quarter replacment when the bodykit goes on, its going to have a full fibreglass Bonnet to save weight at the front and a full fibreglass replacement of my smooth boot (with smoothed in Works spoiler)
kristian said:K11STEW, there are much less 'styling' modification on my car that yours, mine are much more performance oriented..
As with the smooth doors, smooth spoiler etc.. Ive made some subtle styling changes, as to my preferences..
the exhaust Is a bit of both... styling and performance..
k11stew said:of course yours are much more performance orientated! youre putting a 2.0 in ffs! i dont think i ever brought my yellow k11 into it, i only said that the fibreglass parts, ie the wide arch kit that is on yours and my cars is more or less the same weight as the flimsy metals wings and plastic bumpers!
and if the exhaust is about performance it wouldnt be coming out of the boot would it mate!? you see many big power jap cars, like 300zx's go from dual exit systems to single exit for performance.
was only adding opinions, good luck with the project.

Low Rider said:If it's road legal and you want to make 600-650kgs, good luck. Personally I would estimate a fair bit higher.
kristian said:Is this applicable?
Your theory is sound for the inside of a Incredably high temp & Rpm-JET engine..
Are these 'Pressures' noticable on the floorpan of a car?
ITS ARRIVED!!!!! all the way from Australia!..

ricardo_swarez said:Obviously you have difficulty understanding my post, the jet engine thing was an example, incase you didn't realise, jet engines are made out of stronger materials kristian, thats because they are put under lots more pressure, do you understand? So in a micra, were forces are less, the materials chosen don't need to carry such large loads, hope your following. Putting 230bhp through a car weighing 500kg (obviously not to much strengthening) with a big hole in the floor for an exaust would cause a big weakness in an already over strained chassis. Do you understand what I mean now, I can understand that for some people this would be hard to follow, I could do pictures and things if you like?

This is WAY to difficult for me to understand and some Pictures and Things would be beneficial..
