well i just pulled my spare, the carpet covering the spare, the factory jack, CPE turbo back single exhaust, at the time megan springs, and stock wheels with nitto nt 555 extreme tires(25lbs each) and a 1/4 tank of gas with FULL interior and i weighed 3410....

Now i have the advans ( about 5lbs per corner) nitto neo gens 245/35/19 tires(22lbs each) act clutch kit which i think is about 15-18+lbs lighter then stock and H&R coils(not sure of weight difference compaired to stock) I think that is all and i weigh 3370 with a almost 3/4 tank of gas.

I pulled my front seat out just to see what it would weigh and the car got down to 3310 with 3/4 tank of gas!! 3/4 tank is about 60lbs and a 1/4 tank is about 20lbs(6.5lbs for 1 gal of gas x 1/4 tank which is about 3-4 gals)

in the picture below (my sig0 i weighed about 3370 but that was before the brembo brakes which i think are about 3-5lbs lighter per caliper and about 2-3lbs lighter than ea rotor!! so this should put me at about 3350.. I plan to strip my car when i go back as well and i hope to be in the low 3200s if not the 3100 range..We'll see..

Now as far as my car i should have my axle by next friday!!! and i will be installing my turbine tech front motor mount this weekend. so i should be hitting the track either next weekend or the weekend after that..

I am thinking i want to get on the dyno before i go and i am also thinking about turning up the boost.. not sure..

wtf where is all my weight coming from?

even 2NR with the GT version with the same deductions weighed the exact same weight as me. But he did have some lighter wheel at the time but it still was full interior!! also orlando (thebigO) i think was about 3500 with his spare in the trunk and light weight wheels..

The ass...? Do you need to go on a weight loss program J/K ;)

Nice work Anthony!

Christian. and the COBB Tuning Crew.

lol driver weight mod FTW

i need to hire a jockey to do my runs from now on lol



im going to old dominion dragway next wednesday if anyone from the DC area wants to come!

11's or bust!!!!!!!!

Well i know he doesn't weigh as much as i do as i weigh 252lbs!! i think skater is about what 190 maybe? i am going to work on getting some light/sticky tires for my 17 wheels and i will let him use those and see what happens. I will also see what i can do to help with his weight. I will look through the car at the upcoming monday meet!!

190! OUCH! hahah

actually closer to 175 but every pound counts! ill gut my car for the monday meet like i do for the track to see where i can improve. i dont want to go crazy as i just like to remove the easy stuff for sake of a few tenths. if i made the same power in an evo/sti who weigh 3200 out of the box i wouldent be complaining haha.


not eating for the next week to save weight, go!

im very happy to see us inching closer to the 11's. im hoping down the road i can join this club

Skater has the body of a 12 year old ballerina. Us 250+ guys have to make actual power to get our asses down the track meanwhile the light weights get to granny shift into the 11's.

lol wait till dustin gets his car up and running, with his 6 y/o ballerina body he should do 10's easy haha

Haha.... Not to mention his turbo is big enough to eat my cat whole

Well nice run Anthony! :) Maybe the scales are off? Hopefully you get your spark blowout fixed, We all know your car has 11's in it.

Hoping for higher trap speed though, gosh dam our gearing is short..your ms6 is what close to 400 whp?...Hoping for 116-118 traps....Are you bottoming out on 4th?

I know Forzda and others tried using 5th at the end, and it actually ended up hurting the trap speed, But Im a drag noob.
Regardless you got a pretty fast ms6 and its glad to see someone out there trying to get shit done on the strip! :)

I know I was definitely shifting into 5th

what was your fastest stock turbo time? thats my goal to beat for now

i think 12.9@107 haha

on stock turbo shifting at 6k i was well into 5th by the time i hit the 1320 (fully bolted, stock was a gamble 4th or 5th)

now im shifting at 7k and i think im about 1/4 the way through 5th when i trap.

thats a good bench mark for me to beat, and i will lol :439:

Tie the steering wheel to the seat so it drives straight, then amputate your left arm. That should save 20-30lbs. My car must weigh close to 2 tons w/ my fat ass in there and zero weight reduction mods :/. I plan on ditching spare + back seat (maybe) for my first runs. I'd like to lose weight, but perhaps I'll sell my turbo down the road and swap in a ts35 instead, haha. NOS maybe? As a last ditch effort to shave weight, wear panties instead of your tighty whities and get a haircut :).

+1 to wearing panties

And that's what I'm doing... Fuck having to be a good driver... If I throw enough power into my car, it'll go fast

remove all the car's body panels

drive naked after a full body wax

Amputate your left leg instead of the arm (leg weighs more than arm). Then use left arm to depress clutch instead of left leg
