Diet advice I've read through about 7 pages of the weight reduction list so far but I'm looking for a quicker answer. What's the easiest way to drop ~200lbs from a 99 SS hardtop A4 car? It has a moser 12 bolt, qa1 coilover set up (front), !front swaybar, prostars, ajr tubular k member, stroked iron block and it's still weighing in over 3600lbs. Anyone know how much the stock ss hood weighs compared to the dgm carbon fibre piece?
TIA

Change over to an aluminum block and lose 90lbs off the nose of the car 
You could go with tubular A arms... My car is at 3175lbs and I am planning on getting it down to 3000lbs with the following...
-Aerospace street/strips brakes
-Switch from power brakes to manual brakes
-Switch from power steering to manual steering
-Remove ABS module (I don't have ABS anyways...)
-VFN lighweight hood
