Saxo/106 parts weight thread! To the gram! (Track boys look!!)
I will update the list as i strip more of mine. Hope this is of help to people. I stripped my car the other day and stripped 52.330kg's. The idea is to calculate what you've stripped from the list below and work out how much weight you have lost. It might also be helpfull for people posting parts for the cost via royal mail etc.

C5 steel/alloy rim part no. 5401.L7 (without tyre) = 4.720kg x4 C5 wheel bolt part no. 5405.72 = 0.060grams x16 Berlingo centre cap part no. 5416.73 = 0.056grams x4 Vtr alloy wheel without tyre = 7.648kg Vts wheel bolt = 150grams x16 Interior plastics/Hardware. Front doorcard = 2.490kg x2 Parcel shelf = 2.500kg A-pillar = 170grams x2 B-pillar = 96grams x2 Air vent on the rear quarter where the rear light plugs are = 56grams x2 Boot plastic panel = 1.050kg Pre tensioner = 1.010kg Heater motor = 1.450kg Dashboard metal support bars = 1.200kg Heater matrix air pipes = 600grams Dashboard (bare) = 8.950kg Rear quarter plastic with sound deadening and speaker = 1.940kg x2 Rear quarter panel (light grey) joins with the roof lining = 230grams x2 Rear plastic cover were the parcel shelf rests on = 322grams x2 Release mech for the rear seats = 200 x2 Vtr steering wheel with airbag = 2.306kg Main carpet = 7.270kg Roof liner setup (Sunroof version) = 3.243kg Gear stick/window switch surround plastic = 519grams Raceland show cage = 4.327kg Cigeratte lighter = 25grams Streamline carbon stereo blank = 15grams Interior sound deadning.

Good thread mate :)
|
Depending on how far you are going to be stripping the car this could become a very good thread.
|
ooo ill be stripping it alot more. Ive still got the roof lining with the handles etc. The tar sound deadning on the footwells and the rear quarters. Strip all unnsessary wires and bolts. i will also be drilling holes in some panels (not structural) I will also be getting a fiberglass bonnet and boot so i will weigh the standard items aswell as the fiberglass ones for comparison. Once i get my polycarb windows i will also weigh the glass and the polycarbs aswell as striping all unessary parts in the doors. I will keep this updated.
|
Parts may weigh more if they are dirty/dusty!
|
Obviously everyones will be different by a couple of grams or so but it gives you a very close weight for the parts you strip.
|
Bad thing is you can't drive your car though as you don't have a steering wheel :panic:
|
lol i have a lighter smaller wheel on :p but i havnt taken that off to see the weight of it.
|
Wicked thread mate.
My vtr interior is stripped to the max. Only thing left to take out is the dash and fabricate some kind of sheet aluminium.... Very helpfull. Cheers |
You should put them into an excel document, once finished sort them so they go in order of heaviest first, to the lightest :y:
|
no worries, glad i could help. Ill put it into a exel sheet and update it.
|
Little update..
106 Gti front leather seats with subframes/sliders Rear quarter (Stuck down) sound deadening Roof lining setup (Sunroof version) |
^ ^ I see no weights :P
The idea about putting it all into Excel is a great one. Can then take the weight of the standard car, and work out a rough weight of your car with different parts stripped out. |
The weights have been updated into the list at the top mate. Everytime i update it i will edit the first post and add them in there. :y:
The excel idea is great and as soon as i have time to do it i will upload one for everyone to use. ;) |
Ah I see!!
Awesome!! Good work!! Excel spreadsheet should be good! |
Any more updates on this mate?
|
Not yet mate. I will have to do the exel spreadsheet at work because my comp dosent have it. im back to work next week so ill crack on with it then ;)

I got bored and sorted all of the above in to a spreadsheet but it wouldnt let me upload this as an excel spreadsheet so i have had to upload it as a pdf file.
If anyone want the excel file i still have and i can email it to you. |
I should have done this with my diablo 106 and listed the chunks I angle ground off the car
|
Have some more weights....
Fog light = 531grams x2 The other weights i have were taken with scales that rounded the grams off to the nearest 0.010. Pre tensioner = 1.010kg's Heater motor = 1.450kg's Dashboard metal support bars = 1.200kg's Heater matrix air pipes = 600grams Dashboard (bare) = 8.950kg's I will edit the first post and add these to the list! |
Got some new ones...
C5 steel/alloy rim part no. 5401.L7 (without tyre) = 4.720kg x4 C5 wheel bolt part no. 5405.72 = 0.060grams x16 Berlingo centre cap part no. 5416.73 = 0.056grams x4 |
