STRIP WEIGHT VTS

[Mr_Hush]

what stuff will you need to take out of a vts to get a little difference? back seats obvious 1 but what else? anyone done this?

[Frevo]

Take out as much as possible lol!
Spare wheel+ jack = ~20 kilo's
Then all isolation, carpet, roof lining...

[Mr_Hush]

if air is out of spare wheel how much weight would i lose?

[Frevo]

nothing.

[Mr_Hush]

would getting rid of all this stuff make a difference?

[mattvts23]

Yes it might not rattle as much... smileys/smiley2.gif

[wideboy]

as fred says - just take anything out that isnt part of the chassis!

get rid of the spare...then buy a can of tyre weld incase of a flat

could also dewiper to get rid of mechanism + plastic trim on tailgate

Just get rid of anything you think you dont need.

But keep:

Steering Wheel
Engine & Gearbox
Shell

Oh and 1 seat.

another tip

dont fill the tank with petrol. remember 1 litre = ~1kg

[wideboy]

i dont mean to nit-pick, but is a litre of petrol not a slight different weight per kilogram...?

compared to water anyhoo

[Andyt]

i would think so..it's gonna have a different density isn't it...therefor different weight.
