Ok guys so I deleted my old post of wiring removal for weight savings and just decided to put title as weight reduction. Interior of my V is completely stripped. No seats, floor mat, sound system, dash, power windows(in process) And trying to remove all wiring as possible. That's my hault, anybody help me on all the wire I can get rid of and what I need to keep? Car is for drag/street. Thanks

Naf is a good person to ask but he is on cadillac forums. He even took a grinder to wleds to cut down the weight and used all titanium nuts and bolts.

Solid axle swap would probably drop 80-100lbs.

maybe he is pretty short.

but what are you aiming to do with the vehicle once you drop the weight?

Idahoctsv

Ahh just average height, 5'9. But uh once it's done it'll be mainly street car and drag when I get chances.

I could be nuts here but why hack up a lux/sport mobile? If you want a gutted lightweight car, start with something else...

Idahoctsv

Yea true I could have. But I got offered on what I thought was a good deal on it and couldn't pass it up. Guy only wanted $2,800 for no motor and trans.

It's unique and their cheap enough, so why not? I know people don't like what I've done to my car, but I do.

Explain to me how removing 2 pounds of wire is going to make you faster.

StretchASU

This.

There is a lot of wiring in these cars that is linked together in one way or another. I am sure that you could take the time to cut down the entire wiring harness in the car if you have the time, patience and wiring know how. Will it be worth it, though? Highly doubtful. Your time and efforts are better spent elsewhere on the car.

ive got two kirkeys, center console delete auto swap and solid axle swap custom fuel cell and got rid of that heavy *** plate in rear seats and im down a couple hundred pounds not sure on exact numbers though

Idahoctsv

Is it really only 2 pounds? Cause if you haven't taken your car apart and seen the wires under the pretty upholstery im pretty sure its.s more than 2 pounds. Ill post a pic. Where exactly is this heavy plate? I think it's removed but not sure

I haven't looked into it at all but can the huge reinforcement of the backseat be removed while still retaining basic functionality of it?
