Ripping Apart My 86na
#1
I'm ripping it apart to make it lighter, i'm going to use it to compete in the SCCA SoloII Stree Prepared class! Just got my license .
I'm shaving the side moldings. They were coming off and seemed a little more expensive to replace them than to just fill 'em in. Getting racing seats, steeringwheel, and i'm gonna make a new dash. all this for lighter weight purposes. Of course, new rims, wider tires, swaybar, springs, struts, and finally a body kit. I don't know how long this is going to take, hopefully done by the end of January. i have to pay off a few parts i bought first, but the cool thing is my shop is going to sponsor me :bigok:
Here some pics of how it looks now...i'm trying to decide what color i should paint it, it's between orange, light blue, and black (just my favorite color). any other suggestions?

I wouldnt bother filling in where the moldings were, that will probably weigh more then when the moldings were on considering the molding weigh next to nothing.
You can go nuts and drill with a hole saw in the door panels and other areas that might not need so much metal.
