anyone know the weight of the inferno cf hood? i plan on starting weight reduction statring with the hood and seats

Battle_Ravage

You should've just asked me. I'll weigh my hood tonight, it's very light, with the latch removed the wind blowing can hold it up. Any questions about removing things, lemme know.

2005gxp

kool, thanks dude. you still using stock seats? im going to a reclinable racing seat ill just have to find a pair of manual seat rails, probally use 2 passenger seat rails.

Battle_Ravage

Yeah, stock seats, for now. Friend has a super light Honda seat I may try to retrofit, only thing is the airbags sensors will be out of whack. The bench and pass seat come out before any racing.

It's pretty light but It won't shed a 1/10th of or anything. I cut the under side of my hood out so it would let the heat out

Battle_Ravage

Mine let's lots of heat out as is.

2005gxp

ill prolly be doing the hood, doing the cuts to let heat out and removing the hood latch and installing hood pins. i figure going all that and the racing seats should shead 1/10th

Battle_Ravage

I've done latch delete and pins.

For the record, my car weighed ~3300 last time I weighed it, in race trim, more stuff has come out since, as well.

How did you get it that light? I'm at 3865 with me in it 1/2 tank of gas fully loaded with the sun and sound package.

Inferno hood really let's the heat after cutting the back side out. I'd take pics but I did a real hack job.

Battle_Ravage

A LOT of bare metal. Seats out, no carpet, trunk gutted, no headliner, I'll post pics. It was with around a half a tank too. I really wish I could ditch the sunroof...

I may cut up on mine.

Hey are you planning on keeping the passenger side airbags working... i need the Air Bag module under the passenger seat or in the passenger seat.. Dont remeber which part number i have.

Battle_Ravage

Hood weighs 25 lbs give or take a pound.

The passenger seat is staying stock, I may just swap mine on race day, haven't decided yet. Seems like more of a PITA to redo all the sensors.

A few more panels have come out since this pics, maybe 3 lbs worth... lol. But weight difference is a little different in autocross than the drag strip.





Only thing on the roof is the sun visors. And the stupid sunroof assembly.
