You might have gutted your trunk a little too much.
It should look something like this in order for it to keep its shape.

sr20andafalcon

im thinking of taking the cabel that releases the trunk out being it dosent woek anyway.fig how did u remove the cabel that releases the gas lid,i mean does your gas lid open going down the road are do u have to open it lol.and is there anything that can be removed behind the rear panels below the quarter window?im wanting to keep all interior panels for reasons so i cant take them out.

Will

the gas door wont open up, it will stay closed without the latch and cable. if you read all of figgys posts in this thread, he says that.

The only thing below the rear side windows is metal bracing. Not very heavy at all when taken out, but I had to do it. Every pound and once matter if you have the time.

1.- How can I take out the power steering fluid, for weight reduction? without buying the power steering elminator kit?

2.- what "kind" of aluminium did smoothdaddy use for the trunk? (1/2", 1/8", 1/16")

3.- what "size" of aluminium do I need to put it in the hole of my sunroof after take it out?

4.- what do you think if I put 4 hood pins in my trunk? (would it look rice?)

well...I think I made a lot of question for this moment.

Thanks for your replys gutted cars lovers!!!

im thinking of removing door panels does air leak in to bad?its pretty cold in winter here in nc.does anybody know the weight of the back panels?

AaroNX

I have kept my door panels and dash. That way if someone is next to me at "The Track" they will not be able to tell the car is stripped to hell and back.

SmoothDaddyFig

1 - Just drain the fluid and remove all the lines from the pump to the steerig column.
The pump will just pump air.

2. I used aluminum "flashing" from Home Depot. Its real thin. I used RUBBER UNDERSPRAY to keep it from rattling back there.

3. ??? no idea.

4. You only need 2. No need for 4. No rice.

SmoothDaddyFig

The regular sunroof is heavy as hell compared to the flip-up.
Im thinking savings in the 15-20lb range.


I dont know who's B16 you're refering to. ????

SmoothDaddyFig

HARDCORE BABY!!!!

Hey figgy it means alot to me to for you to say that man. Do you have any more Ideas for me? I bought a blazer so I don't drive the car much anymore so I'm pretty much open to anything. I'm going to take some more pics today to add to the other thread.

AaroNX

Ok I added more pics of the car this morning.

SE-R_Tj

Smoothdaddy, I already bought the aluminium "flashing" in home depot, I also bough some glue named "roof and flashing rubber" (is this ok?)

How did you paste the aluminium to your trunk???

I think that the fuel tank is under the trunk, I'm worry of this, because I could cut my fuel tank or a friend tell me that my car could explode with the fire of the grinder.

What do you think about this, any ideas???

SmoothDaddyFig

I used sheet metal screws to screw the flashing on from UNDERNEATH the car.
Just screw it to the frame on the sides. You will have to come up with some cool "CUTTING SKILLS" in order for the front and back of the flashing to fit right.

The fuel tank is under the back seat, in front of the rear suspension.
LOL.......nothing is going to happen. It will not explode. You are not going to cut anywhere NEAR the tank. Sparks will fly but you will be OK.

After you screw the flashing on, use that "roof rubber" to seal around the edges.
This will keep exhaust gases OUT!!.

Bust out the dremmels and sawzalls, baby!!!

I'd like to see a 1900lb NX.
