well lets see, i heard of people cutting out their spair wheel well and just tacking in a piece of sheet metal, thats one thing you could do.

you can also remove your current fuel tank and go with a fuel cell, or just a smaller tank.

plexiglass....

the doors are extremely heavy you could cut some of the support out of the inside of it, i swear those doors weigh 100+ lbs... the hatch also weighs over 100lbs so whatever you can cut from that will help, if it loses regidity you could just get a bar run it across weld it on both ends.

ill come up with more later, i just recently chopped my HF into little pieces i can go back through some of it and tell you what u can lose wink.gif

Thats just absoulutely great. What exactly are you using it for? Offroad beater car? If so, cut the roof and take off the doors! Dune buggy style!

Those are possibly the ugliest rims I have ever seen in my life. Please do the world a favour and break them.

I was about to say make youself an intake with a chunk of hose and a crappy filter, but then remembered its carbed isnt it... can you flip the aircleaner lid over on those and have it still seal? I used to on my old 83 toyota corolla, and it gave it sweet sound.... laugh.gif

Too bad you didnt have a little more in the budget... for like $300 you can get a teg and swap in everything and it'll run prob mid-low 15's then. My civic is around mid-15's with D16A1, and is a few hundred lbs heavier (1850 last time i checked)

he is going to be sliding around in the dirt guys. if he doesnt have it properly filtered, it will suck in a lot of dirt and kill the motor pronto.

*update*

today I installed my si tranny and clutch and a few other things.
Here are some pics but by the time I was done I was to dirty to touch my cammy so there arent many pics:


HF and SI tranny>


the Hf fly wheel is a lot thiner than the SI one>


I swear this is the clutch how it came out of the HF, I knew it was bad but OMG>


HF clutch upper/ si Clutch lower.


And ofcourse one of these it went against budget but I cant let my thrasher be destroyed by dirty oil.
