our doors are heavy...
 

heavier than i'm used to at least. any reason for this? you'd think they want them as light as possible.

It's a coupe so the doors are huge they'd be smaller if it were a 4 door sedan. I would like lighter doors though but it's not a big deal to me.

You think FR-S doors are heavy? Try Impreza 2.5RS coupe! Now that's HEAVY! Specially windy day, it's hellova workout! lol

They're big and an important part of the stiffening of the overall structure. You think they're heavy now, just wait until they do the convertible version.

Safety, also

Heavy? Take out the crash beams--that'll lighten 'em up some...

My sister drives a SLK230 and that car has some heavy doors, probably heavier than the FR-S doors. Ironically, they're so heavy that she shattered her driver side window once just shutting it. Guess what was the first thing I pointed out to her when I showed her the car?

The doors on my 350Z were way heavier.

Her seat belt was stuck outside? :iono: :bellyroll:

Remove:
Door panel
window
window regulator

Add:
Window net

Problem solved

Nope. I guess I could've been a bit more specific. The FR-S windows do something to prevent what happened to her window, that her windows do not do.

Infiniti G35 doors are HEAVY! Much heavier than the FRS'.

But yeah, safety stuff, window stuff, speaker stuff etc. is what makes it so hefty. If you are going racecar, you could definitely get rid of door guts to cut weight, but if you're not, I think it's fine how it is.

dude wtf what.. these doors are featherweight you clearly probably havent been in many cars in your
life lol.
