I wanna add a little more power to the GSR. I always see people taking out back seats for weight reduction, but really does it even make a difference? How much do they weigh? If it isnt going to make a noticable difference than I dont even want to bother going theough the hassle of taking them out. The only performance mod i got on it is a SKUNK2 catback exhaust system.































Serious answers please, thanks.

well it should give you better mpg because you reduce the weight

No Dont even waste ur time. The back seat is like 10-20 pounds the most. Just do work to ur engine. Get cams. Intake, Headers. If u want power fix ur engine up. If u want less weight change ur body kit.

No it will not make a difference on a street car, you only shave off 1/10 of a second for each 100lbs you take off the vehicle. On a street car it's not worth it all, but to the hardcore dragster going from 14 seconds to 13.90 at the cost of 100lbs is well worth it.































Some other options:















Cold Air Intake or Short Ram Intake















Headers















Lightened Flywheel















Stage I or II Racing Clutch















Aftermarket Camshaft and Valve Springs















MSD Ignition system















Aftermarket Intake Manifold and Throttle Body















Also with the GSR motor there's the possibly of dropping in an LSD for the tranny. (I can't remember which B18 tranny's came with LSD though)
