Any less than that will involve carbon fiber replacement parts and things of that nature.

curious to know what else you pulled out?

To be more specific i have NO:

1. stereo components of any kind
2. Airbag components of any kind
3. carpet, frunk/trunk lining, nothing over the engine covers etc
4. top motor transmissions, cables, etc
5. center console, lower dash, etc

I do have:

1. Lightweight battery
2. straight exhausts with bullet mufflers
3. coilovers
4. sparco seats and side mounts with planted brackets

Some heavier stuff

1. boxster s front brakes
2. 3.2 with larger oil cooler
3. csf rads
4. still have AC but thats going
5. SAI but thats going

thanks
5. full glass

You can:

-Remove the rear chrash bar (or drill it out, as I have done)
-Switch to a 987 Engine cover, saves 1.7 kg
-Remove one of the two horns, Saves basically noting ;-) But still..
-Remove passenger side wiper
-Get lighter wheels?
-Make the "Gt3"-center console delete
-Go for a Lithium battery
-Carbon hood / trunk
-Carbon fenders
-Remove the fog light bulbs..

Ok, now I´m struggling.. ;-)

My 99 base is at 2415, goal is 2200 lbs. or less?, street legal. Then I'm taking a Sawzall to the body, chopping off almost everything overhanging past the front and rear tires.

WizardSmokey, nice, did you remove the roll bar? Edit; answer is custom welded in roll bar. I remember your thread now. Need to re-read it.
