Weight Reduction

Does anybody have any weight reduction ideas for the G37 besides carbon fiber hood and trunk?? Doesn't matter how drastic it is, I'd be interested in knowing any and all ideas. Thanks

Recaro racing seats. Lighter wheels. Flywheel and pullies. Brialle battery. lighter HFC. Titanium exhaust. Remove spare and jack. CF hood and trunk.

All that above plus CF steering wheel, remove carpet, back seats, console, stereo/nav screen, drill rotors/suspension/underbody components, strip undercoating and all sound deadening material, aluminum radiator, replace glass with Lexan, have all body panels custom fabricated in CF.

but then again if you wanna do all that why buy a G37 to start with? Luxury is something infiniti brags about IMO
Should've went for something less delicate i guess

Only ever fill your fuel tank to 1/4. Gasoline weights almost 8lbs. a gallon. And I must say that the guy who said leave the 8itch at home was funny
