aceleration according to newtons 2nd law equals force divided by mass, if we reduce the weight by lets say 10% it will accelirate 11 % faster from 0 to top speed, now this is a very oversimplified example and there are a lot more that changes when you reduce the weight of a car like the friction...

thx for the reply, i am going to start to strip out my gen1 when i get around to it and lets see how much weight i can remove, i was debating to keep it a daily or a weekend car but screw it damn thats pretty light for a car with full interior

i am curious abut how much weight you can remove from the gen 1 ms3 before it isnt legal to drive on the road i know its going to be super noisy but i am not going to use it outside of racing

i remember i saw a gen 2 ms3 with slicks run 11.97 on stock turbo stock ic here is the link to the video

thank you for the reply if i use the diesel transmission do i get to keep the lsd from the oem trans or am i stuck with open diff

so i am curious about if you can fit the transmission final drive out of a gen 2 into a gen 1 i am used to hondas so the gears on the speed are too long for me lol

thanks
