Where To Save Weight On A 1g Awd?

sup dane.. long time. heard in here you got a turbo van...? sweet.

uMmm...you got a misunderstanding. i didn't rebuilt the bottom end nor touched the rod bearings. when upon removal of those parts, those are still oem bearings.

all i did was replace the headgasket, timing belt and new clutch disc.

anyhow, hope everything came out ohkay.

later.

Gerbals weigh less than engines. That's why Hondas are so light (and fast)

I can't really add too much to what's been said, but next winter I'm going to try and redo my wire harness. Get rid of all the stuff I don't need like speaker wires, antenae, heater/blower wires. Basically, I'm going to strip it down and just use the essentials like lights, motor, and ecu, and well that's about it. I figure a full chassis and engine harness probably weighs close to 40-50 lbs. If I can cut that in half, not only will I save weight, but I will have a much cleaner engine bay.

Oh, for whatever reason I thought I recalled that the bearing were replaced.

At any rate, I'll PM you. Don't want to get off-topic.
