Moderate stripping doesn't help much. If you go made and put the car on a mega diet it will. The seasts don't weight that much, but with the spare tyre out, sound deadening out etc... you'll notice the diff. a 2L nova not stripped to stripped can be 0.2 faster up the strip :O | |

Don't think i'll bother then, i thought i would of got a decent performance gain but i can't say i've ever felt the weight of the back seats in ma car. I was expecting to get of the line quicker without back seats but if you all say it doesn't really make a difference then i'll probs leave. Wish it did though:lol: | |

Did it make a difference....yeah more uncomfortable and more noisy :| I'm currently putting all mine back in, think it felt quicker due to increased road, engine and exhaust noise :| Not worth it for a power gain IMO :| | |

obviously a weight difference, but depends if you want the rally/track car look or wether your after a weight advantage, if you want the weight advantage, then what would you be needing it for? | |

On the road the extra weight is negligible. Obviously it's there on paper, but in the real world it means jack. | |

no, not if you just remove the rear seats, i put an 2ltr engine in the boot of my car and kept the full interior, didnt make any difference, just lowered my car a bit more | |

Is it realy worth strippin out your corsa to a moderate level. I was thinkin about doin it with mine, i was just gonna take out the back seats but will it actually make a noticable dfference to acceleration.:thumbs: |
