We removed EVERYTHING from this car to make it faster. We carefully took out the seats, the carpet and even the rear wiper to try and shave seconds off of our lap time.
We’re trying to beat a supercar with just £15,000. We bought a Subaru Impreza for just under £4000 and since then we’ve fitted a new clutch, a set of coilovers and some semi-slick track tyres.
With Scott off being a racing driver, we put the Subaru on the scales to get the benchmark number. But before we could do that, we had to figure out how to actually use it.
Scott was overtaking SUPERCARS well over 50 times more expensive than the Subaru. With one Porsche left behind, Scott went after a Ferrari 488 Pista.
Not content with shaming supercars, Scott overtook a Radical before passing the Porsche AGAIN.

Firstly I'd like to say that I love that you've gone for the "it's now a practical van" approach. Secondly: removing the sunroof and welding the hole shut could save a few crucial kg at the highest point of the car. Also: I can't exactly remember how adjustable the suspension is but I'd also suggest to retune it since it's now set up for a car that's 135kg heavier.

[@perpetualgrin5804]

This is why the brilliant engineer's at Mitsubishi Australia designed the 380 with only a ski port and no folding rear seats.

[@milescarter7803]

I'm afraid they went in backwards. You start by getting it to "fighting weight". Cage it and skin the doors. Then you get the suspension and tire compound working. Once you change the weight the spring rates will be all wrong and the tires might not heat properly. Also if you are light enough you might even downsize the brakes and wheel width because you are fighting less mass. Use a lawnmower/Honda size battery located centrally in the car. Cut 10 Kilos/20 lbs of copper wiring to accessories you aren't using out of the wiring loom. Lose the roof rack and the fog lamps. Remove the alternator from engine and run it off the rear diff. Moves weight lower and weight bias to rear.

[@JThyroid]

Don't forget to remove the motors for the sunroof, rear wiper, and rear windows. Getting the A/C system properly drained shouldn't be too expensive. Either that or maybe the A/C already had a leak when you got the car. You could probably replace the sunroof with an acrylic panel and some silicone to seal it.

[@jasonhui2000]

Definitely do a dry lap time next time guys!! I really want to see the time difference!!

[@mikkaprouzinen2500]

Just a little tip to keep in mind. I noticed this even when i just put down the rear seats, the torsion resistance of the whole rear went down drasticaly, so i would strongly recomend some rear strut tower bar to regain it.

Putting a cage in would make a dramatic difference to the stiff factor

[@sampeers8854]

Loving this series! All that weight was not helping the lap times. Shame the English weather robbed us of a time comparison but it looked fun on track.

[@lindsaybaxter9316]

The video should be called Bell ends go wild. Love your work. But, the bar under the rear seats that weighs 3kg is a structural stiffness bar. You might want to keep that one. And in a Subaru weight in the rear is better. Removing weight from the front is more important. So, 86 the air-con system, relocate battery to rear, and plug and remove the moisture collector under the air box. Also, due to the loss of heat protection. I suggest cutting a section out near the a and b pullers on the inside of he front panels and putting another hole near the mirrors will vent the heat out. As a bonus your mirrors will not need to be defrosting. So you could get a practicality point from that. Oh, and rear Sway Bars in Subaru are more important especially in wagons.

[@2arfe]

As an owner of an 05 Saab 92x aero (wrx wagon) that I currently daily, but plan to make a track car.. I found this series awesome. I also have a blown-out front driveshaft boot that sprayed grease everywhere.. and a small crack in my windscreen, a nearly dead clutch, and i plan on getting those exact bc coilovers lol. And ive thought about doing 'some' weight reduction as-well. And always thought fully-stripping it would be epic if it wasnt my daily. Id keep the front door cards & both front seats though

[@chris6ix.]

Sell the parts and get a sunroof delete kit to improve the centre of gravity a bit and maybe also a single bucket seat for the driver if you get enough money from the parts, as this will not only save a little weight but also keep the driver in a better, more stable position, which can also make a small difference :)

[@cmv2xxx]

[@josephfranzen9196]

Being a kid born in 86, I was a junior in high school when the WRX and STi’s came to America along with the EVO and Dodge releasing the SRT-4. My best friend at that point in time had an 01 2.5RS that he kept N/A but added the obligatory intake and catback exhaust along with a cam and injectors. What he did that surprised everyone was spent $8k on the top tier suspension, brake and wheel/tire mods. That car, while in the straights would get its doors blown off by even a stock STi, more than made up for it with its ability to blow through corners with what felt like limitless grip and just the right about of over/under steer. Even at the limit that 2.5RS gave me confidence that even a 911 Turbo S couldn’t match in terms of subjective feeling. 36 years old now and I recently finished building my own 01 2.5RS but I went with the EJ25 route that’s relatively tame, however I took the same route as far as suspension, brakes wheels and tires and anyone who has driven it fails to stop smiling their entire drive

[@Metal05]

I had exactly that car as our family car a few years ago. Was a superb car with the produce kit on it with 280bhp. Fuel bill was a bit pricey though.

[@TeoStan]

If it's lighter now, you can lower the suspension and make the car even faster

[@serenahansen2394]

Lowering the suspension without correcting the roll centres almost never makes the car faster because you actually generate more body roll and strange handling characteristics if you lower the car significantly.

Speaking about weight reduction, a set of very light wheels could be an idea? If not for this series, for a future video it'd be very interesting to see a comparison between very light and heavier wheels and how much it can actually affect the lap times

[@flexinclouds]

I agree, especially because it's 'unsprung' rotating mass. It would effectively put more power to the ground & help it turn in/change direction better on top of just reducing overall weight. I believe for every (lb.) saved with wheels/tires, its equivalent to either 4x or 10x (dont remember which one lol) as much sprung weight

[@scottpearson9692]

You guys should also remove the muffler and just leave the cat on, mufflers are super heavy. Also remove the sunroof and replace it with a thin piece of aluminum. You can also buy some used sway bars from an STI for super cheap that would help too. You could also put on a used, larger diesel turbo and get more power with a tune.

[@3dw3dw]

With the suspension and tires an alignment and balance would make a huge improvement. Best bang for the buck in my opinion. Of course you need to add the lightness first.
