How can i shave weight?
 
First of all, why cant we get any leak info on the subaru side?

Ok back on topic, so i was thinking, how can i make my BRZ any lighter! So what im planning on doing is to take the bumper beams off, front and rear ( i did this to my WRX). Change the battery for a motorcycle one, take out the spare tire, change the exaust and heathers, And now what? There is were you guys could help me! Any ideas??? I want the car to look original so no taking out the back seats please!
Thanks.

Cheapest way to shave weight for ANY car is to hit the treadmill and cut some fat off ;)
I can't even count how many times iv seen obese people talk about how they are saving weight in the car with a titanium exhaust, cf/al panels, billet intake, light seats, replacing glass with plexy etc.. All that weight saving and they shave like 100kg max for like $20k.. Yet they are 60-70kg overweight.. Lol
