Galliano Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 First of all.. start dancing quite sexy, then carry on dancing whilst taking clothes off...On a serious note. It takes quite a bit of weight out of the car. Quite easy too. Just a socket set for the seats, and usually you just have to pull the plastic trim out. The seatbelts you will need to un-bolt at the bottom end of the belt to be able to pull it through. Once you have, put them back together the way you took them off. Do the bolts up as tight as you can. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Steve GT Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 it is that easy lol infact while were on about this subject i think im going to strip mine out even more soon the biggest killer of speed is weight so the less the better in my opinion Quote Link to post Share on other sites

nickep91 Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 strippin is pointless i makes no differnce at all every car ive owned ive stripped and its never made a differnce just make the car cold and damp inside unless its a track car and used for nothin else its completly useless in my opinion of course Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Steve GT Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 I was about to post something similar suprise suprise :harhar: strippin is pointless i makes no differnce at all every car ive owned ive stripped and its never made a differnce just make the car cold and damp inside unless its a track car and used for nothin else its completly useless in my opinion of coursewell in cases like these i like to bring the old power vs weight argument into itimprezas for example....quite a bit of power standard but very heavy so there rather slow lolstarlets are very light anyway but every gram does make a difference so technically the lighter the car is by removing things the quicker it will be. obviously theres no bhp gains so you wont notice on a dyno for example but on the road there is a difference lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jae-Glanza Posted October 21, 2009 Share Posted October 21, 2009 Especially when 30 minutes ago i had Twin subs, large amp! That removed along with the back seats im sure will make a difference.May i add, i kept the carpet though. The carpet which is clipped to the back of the back seat sits lovely over the horrible metal ;pI reckon it looks awesome! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
