I can not believe I'm reading this garbage, you want to get an extra bit of hp from 55hp to 65hp,atw or get more power by lightness, the car already can get to 600kgs how much mire lighter you wanna go before the wind blows you of the road? most cars weigh over 1200kgs we are already half that you need upgraded engine parts or a sr20det swap, now think of this a Silvia weighs 1200kgs roughly if yo put that same motor Ina datto ute with a 500kgs weight difference what do you thinks gonna happen?
you need engine power then you can add less weight
if some one can tell me if I'm wrong please do?
It's not about right or wrong. It is simply different approaches to performance improvement.
There are a lot of ways to lighten a car which are also free. So you get all the benefits of a lighter car and it is light on the wallet too.
Keep in mind that having more engine power does not improve your car's handling or reduce braking distances.
A combination of lighter weight and increased horsepower is obviously ideal for most people but why not maximise what you have right now?
