I often wonder why cars do not come with them from the factory these days- it would make trouble shooting malfunctions SO MUCH easier... not to mention clean up a lot of otherwise cluttered engine bays!

Yeah, I think it looks so much cleaner! Things have to be clean, clean CLEAN I say!
Marine Grade Stainless Steel Unbrako screws is my favourite!
You don't happen to know where to buy that contact a little cheaper?
Tool and Contact is 600 $ + shipping and tax

haha, yeah!
Havent reduced a lot of weight, mainly because I don't have time but it will be done sooner or later, maybe for next season if I got time for this car then (Tubeframe timeattack ? )
What have been done that can be considered of removing weight is:
Removed ABS
Removed OEM enginebay wiring and unnecessary sensors ++
Cutting trunk floor for radiator fitting
removed oembattery case
removed A/C
Seibon Carbon bonnet on the way
removed OEM ECU
removed all alarm and security shit
What can be done:
remove sounddampening inside the car (probably 20kg??)
Lexan windows
moar carbon
Carbon rollcage (yes, it is possible)
Half of the AN stuff came today
What is missing in the package is AN16 and AN20
AN16 for the oilcatctank and AN20 for the radiator-to-engine
Shamely, I haven't get to pick up the finished crankshaft yet, but I will do in the following days.
Cheers
