OMG, you're ******* stupid. How hard is to understand that Gregrob has not weighed his car, he has no idea of the ACTUAL weight. He clearly stated he is stock weight minus the AC system. So whatever his car weighed stock, plus or minus upgrades, minus the AC, and he doesn't know for sure equal his current weight. ****, who cares? It's not a big deal. Get off his ***.

Oil Cooler
Intake elbow
Spare tire and jack

Ash tray

Anything reducing the cars weight would be considered weight reduction in the way they are describing "Full Weight" Your missing a bolt your car is now considered not "Full weight"

Or at least thats what I'm getting out of this but who knows

how did you know it was a he? and this brick had a face?
if the car weighs 3400lbs at the date of sale. then i gut factory crap out and add a roll bar and other safety features. maybe i even add a nitrous system with a fuel cell. if it hits the scale at 3400lbs, guess what it's full weight. weight is a number not a object. if something weighs over what it was sold as then its over weight, the term not full weight would not apply. the term not full weight means lacking weight.

NO, i agree that if the cars weight is equal to or greater then the stock curb weight then yes its full weight. How often do you ask people what weight addition they have done to the car, the answer is never. What are you gonna do, give him a penalty for being heavy and make him remove weight till hes back to "stock weight". lolz

^^^ THIS!!

I'll admit sometimes this stuff gets funny, but it would be nice to have SOME of the good threads stay on target for a change.

Build looks good gregrob. What's the countdown to "spray it" looking like?
