Today at the shop, Cory and Myself were sitting there looking at the car trying to find ways to make it a little lighter. One thing led to another and before we knew it the whole thing was apart. lol. Needless to say we found a lot of things that were not needed for our car and the car is loosing a lot of weight. When we are done the car will still be full interior just without all the extra weight. Here are some pics… Man that sunroof looks heavy… ![http://www.streettunedmotorsports.com/z/08_tear_down/tear_down_inside_roof.jpg](http://www.streettunedmotorsports.com/z/08_tear_down/tear_down_inside_roof.jpg) Now its ready for an AMS roof ![http://www.streettunedmotorsports.com/z/08_tear_down/tear_down_inside_roof_out.jpg](http://www.streettunedmotorsports.com/z/08_tear_down/tear_down_inside_roof_out.jpg) I wonder what we can find under the dash? Yeah all that sound deadening stuff has got to go… ![http://www.streettunedmotorsports.com/z/08_tear_down/tear_down_cory_emery.jpg](http://www.streettunedmotorsports.com/z/08_tear_down/tear_down_cory_emery.jpg) ![http://www.streettunedmotorsports.com/z/08_tear_down/tear_down_dash.jpg](http://www.streettunedmotorsports.com/z/08_tear_down/tear_down_dash.jpg) Next up is the ABS… ![http://www.streettunedmotorsports.com/z/08_tear_down/tear_down_engine.jpg](http://www.streettunedmotorsports.com/z/08_tear_down/tear_down_engine.jpg) We have a while to get all this done but why not start now? I think our goal for next year will be to compete with the big guys but still maintaining the “Street car” image. The car is in such good shape that I cant bring myself to hack it up. -Emery ---
