>this car's curbweight is 500 pounds more that means its bad

Do you guys not think that 500 pounds when into better materials on the interior, a heavier wheel, and a better made chassis and suspension as opposed to your car made of paper mache, sticks, and hard plastic?

I don't get this curb weight obsession that is specifically on /o/

Haha faggot
Enjoy my NA miatas rear tail lights with a 13b turbo swap that weighs 1950 pounds or less

>>15407295
How the fuck is a 13b swap in a Miata rice? That's probably the most horrifyingly fast performance mod you could do to one of those short of a 3-rotor.
>>
The thing is that there's no replacement for low weight. The heavier the car, the more that needs to be put into the tires and suspension and engine to get the same results. There's a reason why the memeata is still an interesting car to drive, and it's not because of that trash motor in there.

>there's no replacement for low weight
evidently there is
Also come on man
Miatas need weight added to them, they need to be made stiffer with better suspension if you want to do >>15407254

Less weight = more fast
Less weight = more corner
Less weight = more mpgs

>500 pounds
The old rule of thumb is 100lbs is 0.1s in the quarter, so that's a full half second you're giving up.

So what? My car is a piece of shit? I can't feel good about anything in my life?

You drive a Prelude you have to know how it feels why do you have to make ME feel like shit too? Fucking kill me just fucking do it what do I even live for
>>
>>15407076
Weight is... Okay. You just need some good power to make up for it. Hellcats are okay. Chargers are not.

GTR. Okay.

BRZ??? Supercharger/Turbo or go home. Get a base focus instead.

>>15407462
Option A: gut it
Option B: deal with it

I'm going to put my Prelude on a serious weight loss program because it's not my daily driver anymore. My Civic on the other hand, which is my daily driver, got RPF1s for weight reduction and that's it.
>>
>>15407504
Why not tune the Civic instead
Its a much better platform anyway
>>
>>15407504
How much weight can I even lose? It's impossible
>>
>>15407516
It's an 8th gen EX-L, not worth it. And the Prelude is a really good platform actually. I also personally like the car a lot more.
