I've taken the power steering pump/pipework off, de-wipered & removed the spare wheel & carrier, all comes in at 31kilos.
I'll keep it standard until i get used to/bored then i'll start with filter & manifold/exhaust, I can't lower it as the roads are way to bumpy where i live & i'll keep grounding out & i wan't to fit a front lower brace.
I was quite supprised by how well it pulls, seems to have nigh on the same acceleration as the rx8 i used to have, i've only gunned it to 90 though.
