    hey guys im currently driving a 85 sx (gt-s) and i have done a few basic mods like extractors, 2.5" exhaust and k&n panel filter

    my question is...

    how much would removing a approx 15kg sub woofer and also the back seats and back trim or plastic interior whatever its called affect my acceleration/fuel economy??

    and also would i get in trouble for not having the back seats and all the interior removed from the back?

    thanks guys

    removing the sub and rear seats aren't going to cause any significant changes, though you may notice a tiny difference, simply because of having less dead weight. Celicas generally have great fuel mileage already....is yours that bad?
