i got cleared out my rear pretty nice. ( no gay shit)












Here is a PDF from Mitsubishi Ralliart, how you can safely take out the excess parts, and not hurting the body rigidity. Just go until you will find the right pictures pages.
(i suggest download it , then scroll through, since its 89 page) like seat brakets base in the page 28. etc and other thingies from page 36, but you should read the whole thing.

my car is over 3200 LBS lol

Seriously dont know the weight. It was an item we didnt weighted. it was an obvious upgrade for lightening the car up. So i have no clue. And now it is deep inside the car.
Also creates a LOTS of room under the dash!!

Awesome, simply awesome. I NEED more info on that heater, as long as it doesn't cost more than $400, lol

I've seen and Evo 8 at like 2300 pounds. It was so light it was illegal to be used its auto x class, they had to ADD weight. Wish I could find that video, someone posted it here at one point. Keep in mind, it didn't have a cage, or any real safety equipment.



Of course, but those are $$$.

i did see that "car" .. LOL
I am talking about car you can legally run at events.

Makes me want to go full race car build. lol

Although, everything you've done to the X you can do to an 8/9. Imagine an evo in the 2600lbs range.

this weight saving wont bring down an evo IX to 2600lbs.
Mine was 3020 lbs on Robi scale stripped an caged. It was an Evo IX RS 2006

if you going to a full racing build later , here is some ideas


Stock heater vs my heater

Heavy balance weight on the drive shaft, makes no difference, its on or not, in my experience..

after you took out everything including sound deathening material etc. and when nothing left , then you have to start cutting the parts out, which was meant to be cut out and later lightening up the engine bay. ie removing ABS units etc. getting instead the pedal box set up etc.. But be careful with heat shields!!! keep most of them on it is important!
cutting parts out from the interior:

Part of the junk was took out

lightening the rear doors:

then the empty engine bay:

the finished light front / engine bay set up, At least part of it on the pictures, notice no ABS and other crap in there anymore

this for now
Nice thread though! I like!!!!
