Official Fit "lightweight" thread

trust me... the Fit AC system does not weigh 80 lbs... more like 30 lbs at most.

i didn't take out all the interior stuff. just compressor, condenser, and some lines.

take out the dash, you'll see the huge a/c system box on passenger side. start yanking it out since you already got rid of the external stuff. then reweigh it u might be suprised.

but when you do that, you can lose your heater too... i like reducing weight and all but im not removing the heater.

Seriously the whole time i've had my fit I have hardly EVER used my a/c. Even on the hottest of hot summer days and i live in southern california. I just roll down my windows and let the wind work its magic. Removing the a/c system will only improve mpg if the you previously used a/c consistenlty right? I thought removing a/c would render more HP because the belt used to run the a/c compressor would be eliminated, true?

Well....
I weighted the Fit yesterday at the track and it was 2,309lbs
Manual sport without rear seats, spare and jack, and the wheels are konig heliums with toyo AR1.
It was 2,499 with me so I weight 190 lbs with helmet hehehehehe!!!
Time for a diet!!!
