Also a lot of the braces can be drilled for weight reduction but more braces will need to be added to eliminate the wheel hop. It wont be an easy task but i can be done. Also.. all of those mods are free... fiberglass (or CF) hood/trunk lid, wheels, racing drivers seat these are all things that can be done as well........ there was once an article i saw in a magazine hon how to gte a Nissan Se-R to run 12's for free
all they did was keep removing weight until it was just 4 wheels a motor a drivers seat and a steering wheel, no roof no doors no nothing.
So it can be done but hopefully i wont have to take it to that extent
the dyno i my best fried.. hopefully i can use brains to go faster

Yea, I was talking with keeping the main seats and no drilling. Obviously if you put holes and stuff it works, but the bumper supports and fuel brace scare the **** out of me. I also got rid of the mufflers
My hood is the scorpio one, which is half FG and metal, so it's also lighter by a tad.
