[QUOTE="justinschmidt1, post: 446876, member: 8889"] I was under the impression that a 96-98 5 speed coupe was like 3250 curb weight? maybe im crazy but its not hard to make a 96-98 gt weight 3100 lbs Removing everything from the trunk, rear seat, front sway bar, dog bone should save like 100 lbs. or so. DFG had welds which probably dropped 50 lbs on all 4 wheels with the skinnys up front. so thats how you get a stock 5 speed coupe from 3250 to 3100~ Theres not too much more you can do without making the car unstreetable Aluminum block saves like 80 pounds I thought...coilovers and k member save like 30 lbs but that shit is $$$$ [/QUOTE]
