Yea I’m sure it’s heavy. Just stuck because I don’t want the weight, but I also don’t want the crazy loud exhaust. And the K20C2 has a whooping 2 aftermarket options. A dual exit magnaflow that is heavy, expensive and wasteful (two pipes?!)that stock exhaust should go too, it must be heavy af
yeah I’d be stoked to have their hood and front fenders too. $$$$ and shipping to Hawaii would probably cost more than the parts themselves haha.Nice weight reduction! Fyi, Seibon sells a CF trunk + trunk garnish if you want to shed off some more pounds!
Got my attention, read the whole thing.**This thread will be the Yin to the Yang of all the slammed, 19x9.5 riding, subwoofer hauling, clear turn signal, 3000 lb 10th civics driving around with their sunroof open playing some hippity-hop crap***
Biggest thing I hate about the 10th gen. If we could make a slim shifter cage just for aesthetics and patch up the holes in the carpet (could lay a rectangle of carpet over the existing holes for color) it would look amazing and really make the cabin more airy, on top of the weight savings.I'm super into the stripped center console look if I could secure the cupholder by itself on there for convenience (is that considered moving backwards??) I've heard people compare our cc to the NSX one but I always preferred the low-down empty look of the older civics and most other cars.
drove car like that for over a year. Got bored and with my history of tearing cars apart to lighten them, I have gotten to this list of weight removed.
Weight loss
Rear seat belts 7.8
Speakers and head unit 6.0
Rear door panels, rear floor mats, plus hardware from all removed 10.0
Spare tire/wheel 23.2
Rear tan plastic trims 5.2
Rear seat bottom 10.0
Rear seat back 21.8
Rear trunk floor cover 2.6
Trunk tools plus gray foam 5.0
Rear parcel shelf 5.0

=130.4
2742 - 130.4 = 2,611.60 lbs
The Copper TFR’s I first had were 17x8 ET40, 18.1 lbs each. I loved those wheels. The look at least.BTW: What tires size and model are you running with those Enkeis?
I am thinking with that power to weight ratio, you'll be in the low 6's, high 5's as well. I know in my 2015 Honda Fit, I had gained about 15-20whp (from 130hp to 145-150hp) with mods (From testing with Torque Pro App). The car was running in the 15.2-15.4 1/4 mile time range @91-92mph, while I was at a 2350lb weight. You with the added 35hp and similar weight should see some very interesting results.long term, id like to show a camera view of a 0-100 test with all the mods done. If I had to guess, as it currently sits stock 158 hp and 2500 lbs puts me very close to the power to weight of a EM1 Si, but with much better gearing and torque. Current acceleration should sit between EM1 and a ITR. In the end, I want a high 5’s/low 6’s to 60 car. I think 2420 lbs and ~185 hp should do it. That power to weight betters a E36 M3.
I was asking about your tire size because I'm running 205/55-15's.Oh yeah, I wanted to explain how I got to 205 being enough tire for my car. (Other than the obvious it has no hp’s lol).
1999-2000 Civic Si = 2,612 lbs and came with a 195/55R15 tire. Upgrades tend to go 205.
1997-2001 Integra Type R = 2,560-2,633 lbs, depending on year and A/C or not. Came with a 195/55R15. Upgrades also tend to go 205, maybe a 215.
2002-2006 Acura RSX Type S 2,736 lbs for early models, 2,848 lbs for 2005/2006.
205’s on 2002-2004
215’s on 2005-2006
Upgrades on these do go quite wide, 225 common, some even go 235 or 245. But this is a heavier car.
yeah tire weight makes a bit difference. Especially on low torque cars.I was asking about your tire size because I'm running 205/55-15's.
205/50-15 Vredestein Quatrac 5
Tire weight: 17lbs
I know how big you are on weight. Seems you have some good choices already though.
