well i'm just gonna sit here in the corner and watch from a distance hahaha

While your sitting there you can keep coming up with ideas , as maybe come up with good idea to make or modify that has not been done on car yet , but don't come out with sequential gearbox because  can't afford at moment , but no doubt car wil get one in the end mate 

damn that was my next idea lol i wouldn't touch then engine in terms of transplant, i've always liked the idea of getting as much power out of a naturally aspirated engine as poss, granted a semi seq gearbox would be epic especially with a decent sounding exhaust system, over run and gear shift pops... ahhhh just like being on a bike lol

how about carbon rims

it's a shame there isn't much of an engine cover like there are on bikes, i'd have said engine covers or something like that, i'm sure you'll find something else to turn into carbon... i would say the roof but i don't know how much structure or stability it plays on the car and your confidence lol albeit carbon is effectively stronger it would shed a few kg's

my ideas for making it lighter

roof
passenger foot plate and any other sheet covers you have
dash (trim it right down to bare min and carbon it up or at least small enough to hide the wiring!)
mirrors (internal and wing if you are going to be fitting them on)
and if your feeling skilled enough, carbon bell mouths in the airbox - that would be just pure sex lol i came across a set for my race bike, wish i spent the money to get them to be honest as they are rare as fook!

the doors - i would use a pull cord rather than a handle on the interior support it to the door rather than the card, more so if you are using perspex that doesn't wind down and you have a fixed/sliding window, lose the regulator and guts of the door - really light then! (im guessing you have thought of this though)  take note from the Ferrari F40 although i would lose the window altogether



the next thing i would do, lose the lights and run LED type or just smaller lamps in general, fill the holes out and cut away for the new lamp to be fitted on the rear (assuming people on track days rely on tail lamps for cars, wouldn't know, never done a car track day, only bike!) and i would also lose the head lamps, fill the gaps and use stickers to replicate... like so... think it would look odd without the lights being there! but certainly shifts a fair bit - im assuming you have stripped the lights out but can't remember what you have done already and i cant see it on the thread!
