only strip it if its a track hack mate as i have lived with a stripped out daily driver and it aint no fun :O(

 

[Wayne'o]

As above only trip it if it's to be a track car

 

[RsvRob]

its only short distance for every day use or just used as a toy

 

[gooner8]

I'd leave it std mate, maybe get some bride seat's.some interior mod's? Tho if i remember right your interior was well nice! So rip it out and i'll have your's lol

 

[B6lee]

i think unless its purely a track hack then yea ok strip it but if not then leave it alone.

there aint much to take out to strip it anyway so not really much gain to be had unless your gonna go fiberglass doors etc

 

[foxy lady x]

i'd say leave it cos when you go to some shows that are long distance like coombe you'll regret it

Leave it. I stripped out my 9 for shits and giggles to see how it would be, it made the exhaust massively louder, it droned more and i could hear every mechanical noise from the car including the plates in the rear diff and rose joints in the suspension. Since putting the interior back in and sound proofing the doors i'm MUCH happier and its a weekend toy!

 

[m7gsr]

Leave the interior in

 

[RsvRob]

God your all boring lmao
Tought some of you would have said do it ...

 

[RsvRob]

Do it fella, full rally look with cage, seats, etc

You'll have to get a bright orange cage tho to match the wheels

 

[evo arm's m7960]

oh go on then do it as it will probably break again and you wont get to drive it any way .lol

:O)

 

[RsvRob]

cheeky git ... lol

 

[evo arm's m7960]

just messing mate ,
but really dont strip it unless your tracking it .
you will thank us for the advice after you put the interia back in :O)

if your wanting to do it to save weight . then look out for some rs parts . i belive the doors / glass/ suspension /hubs/ arms / ect are lighter .

if your's is a gsr .

and look at unsprung weight / wheels tyres ect .

as removing the rear seat just makes the car look untidy for such little gain .

 

[RsvRob]

I've been in a mates E6 thats been stripped out and it didn't bother me.
I run a tuned Aprilia RSV Mille aswell and thats loud So noise isn't an issue.
I'm not after just saving weight but the look aswell.

 

[micevo]

depends what you want it for, if like said a track /sprint toy, then i would just take out what you dont need, ie i had to remove rear seats cus of the cage, and harness bar, boot is all empty cus off battery and meth tank, seats throw away the originals and get some light weight buckets, ive kept my a/c cus i like it....

I have gone ahead and started stripping it

Stage 1 complete
-Boot
-Door cards
-Rear seats
-Rear belts
-Centre console/hand brake surround

Loving it already :razz: Feels lighter and quicker and not dragging the arse so much ... lol

Have even noticed the pops/bangs improved with less load on the engine
