We really under appreciate how Chris lays everything out so nicely for like 40 seconds of talking. Like that’s 400 pounds of stuff you nicely place just to showcase its really awesome
Was thinking the same thing. Dude really illustrates for his viewers. And is really genuine and precise. He's one of the best car guys on here no doubt
Just a disclaimer for anyone who doesn’t know: DONT immediately go to remove an airbag after disconnecting a battery and thinking it’s disarmed. I’m sure you’ve mentioned it in previous videos but airbags are linked to capacitors that can store the circuit energy and keep the bag live. It’s always Good practice to wait 15 to 30 minutes after disconnecting the battery to let the capacitor dissipate the electricity elsewhere first.
Here's a tip that came straight from the Honda dealer during the airbag recall nonsense. Take you're battery terminal cables after you have removed the battery and just hold them together to complete the circuit after about 1 minute all the capacitors should be discharged. I got that response after I made a terrible joke about the airbag blowing up in the techs face the moment he touched it.
@@chrisfix Hahaha oh damn, whoops! I should get to the video of this year's race pretty soon, hopefully it turned out better. According to the thumbnail I saw, it looks like it tho. Love your content btw, followed your stuff on and off for years (Still need to watch that light scratch removal one regularly 😂), great to see you push things even further with full on endurance racing!
That “fastener” holding in front of the carpet behind the clutch is actually the clutch stop. Make sure you reinstall that to prevent any possible damage to the clutch system.
Despite all that work and substantial weight reduction, average acceleration time improved by less than 1 second. I'd be quite disappointed if I had a car to do. Though the braking improved a lot.
Always appreciate when people make videos like this. I don't need to listen to 15 minutes of backstory and 10 minutes of unrelated channel updates, merch advertising, plugging their patreon, etc. that shit is so annoying
*clicks on how to change tire video* hey guys it's every TH-camr nowadays, tires are important. They are round which is good for rolling. They are filled with air which reduces turbulence. They are rubbery which is good for traction and breaking. They have rims which is good for showing off. They are black which is good for racists to learn to coexist. They are attached to the breaks which is good for stopping. There is four of them which is good for balance. So if your tire is damaged or missing you should really consider changing the tire. In today's video I'm gonna be teaching you the top 10 best ways to change a tire. So let's not waste anyone's time and get right to it but first don't forget to bosh that like button before you see weather or not this video was actually informative and even more importantly smash that subscribe button, I make these videos not for a chance at passive income nor grocery store level fame but because I read some guide to making these cookie cutter youtube videos and have my moms nice Camara. And don't forget to click the bell so your phone will piss you off more than it does. Okay so lets jump right into the video no lenghty intros on this channel. First thing you want to do is identify the 4 tires on your car. Then you want to check their psi. You do this buy taking your car to a mechanic and having them use their special psi tool that looks like a flute. Check your owners manual for the psi you're car desires. Usually its about 55 psi. If they are below that change them for new ones. Dont cheap out and buy used. Now that your new tire arrived in the mail. Fill it to 55 psi. Jack up your car, pull old tire off (doesn't show the 1 detail you were looking for). And that's it. Now you can drive around with a rounded tire car. If you somehow made it this far without hitting the back button please like and subscribe to my channel for more cookie cutter how tos overly long and hardly helpful. That's the way the cookie crumbles...
I like tho how it could've been like 3 min vid of just pictures of him removing and then the weight. But by this way we can see how cars are put together!

I rolled my 2005 Prius in 2016. By the grace of God, I walked away with no broken bones. Had the car towed to my house, then spent the next few days removing everything from the ac vents to the visors, radio, sunglasses holder, door panels, actuators, covers for the tweeters, glove compartment, rear hatch panel and electric latch actuator, window/door lock controls, cup holders, power button, airbags, hybrid battery, etc. etc. etc. I then organized everything, took pictures and posted everything on ebay.

If you would have cut the catalytic converters off of it about four to six months ago the right person those would have brought you $1,800 hope you didn't scrap the car and leave the Converters on it because they're still worth well over 1,300 right now...!!!!
@@motersickel there’s no way. I can buy a brand new (off brand but Prius compatible) catalytic converter off eBay for $150 I just looked it up and holy shit. That’s crazy. I parted my old Prius out about 6 years ago so I doubt it was worth near as much. My current Prius has a clogged catalytic converter. Wonder is that effects value. I know they’re wanted for the rhodium and platinum not for the function of the apparatus themselves. Also, the engine on my wrecked Prius had nearly 300k miles
If I made it as light as possible, I would also replace all the glass with plastic. You no longer have to worry about pieces of glass and you can strip even more.
For some reason, the wires to these speakers were already disconnected. BMW: They were connected, but since you did not pay for the $5,000 sound system upgrade, we disconnected them.
Honestly I don't know why is this the case for BMW drivers. Because I just got a MINI and the indicators are amazing. Subtle and deep clicking sound for indicator sound. What even makes it the best indicator system I've tried is that the indicator goes two clicks each direction. click them once and the indicator indicates 3 or 5 times depending on your settings you selected. This is such a useful feature when I want to change lanes and not have to manually stop the indicator. I just set it to indicate 5 times, so that I let it indicate three times while driving in my lane and then start changing lane while the last 2 indicates are going. Perfect lane change with seamless effort.
Wow, just realized the amount of stuff in a car that is there just to provide comfort for the drivers and the passengers. Really makes u appreciate life
I personally tried this and found the car lost a ton of weight when I took out the engine block and replaced it with a cardboard box. I also replaced the shock absorbers with slinky toys; finally I took out the suspension crossmember and replaced that with some metal bars I welded together. On an unrelated note I’m typing this comment in the hospital.
That's a good weight saving! Some more weight saving thoughts: you can also remove the AC Compressor and use a shorter belt. Remove power window motors and fix the position of the windows if allowed. Remove the cabin air heat exchanger and piping. Replace heavy door interior panels with fibreglass coverings if allowed. Replace glass side windows with clear plastic if allowed. Remove cabin air ducting if allowed. Remove the catalytic converter and add a straight pipe to the muffler.
Window motors, door cards, dashboard😅, side airbags, steering wheel with airbag, side trim, wheel liners and sound deadening, spoiler and side marker lights. Probably another 200lbs! Then weld in a 250lb roll cage!
The weight is what makes it luxurious. They purposely make the doors heavy so you get the nice thunk when you shut it. also they make the driver side a little higher so when you get in the balance is perfect
I just absolutely love how you inform about the position of each and every screw, bolts and nuts. This isn't just informative, it's helpful and time reducing efforts.
it is slowly revealing to me, at my age of 27, that i might be a car guy. your videos bring me great joy and this video felt like those asmr satisfying videos (which i usually hate) subscribe!
The dry ice part is a nice tip. In the cleaning industry there’s a product used to freeze bubble gum and remove from surfaces. For such a big removal though, dry ice is a great idea.
PRO-TIP : Dry-ice blasting is also incredibly great for blasting under the car to clean remove rust & make the belly shine+ any other mechanical parts like, steering-rack, suspension A-arms & bushings, engine oil-pan, the intricate gearbox housing pattern, remove the dust on brakes+rims just looking like brand new again..
I did it the other way, with a heat gun. It worked also with a hair drier, but it was slow. The rest of the sticky bitumenous crap was cleaned with toulene.
Didn't watch it all, yet, so don't know if your 6.8 to 6 comment was a typo... but if, after losing all that weight, he only gained .8 of a second, then you, and he, is off his meds bigtime for thinking that makes any sense.... I gotta get back to the VID, because this comment is insane, or a typo... it has to be a typo. I could take my pants off and gain .8 of a second!
As a lifetime automotive weight weenie myself, I want to let you know that you're officially my 'Hero of the Month'. I'm truly impressed with your video due to your passion for what you do and also your willingness to obtain the data to back it up. I talk about improved acceleration, handling, and braking all day...but being able to legitimately quantify it is the real deal! Bravo my friend, and keep up the great work!
Yes - so right! ... And now he should next have the car lifted up, all engine, drivetrain and axles removed, and refitted with the usual lightweight parts, race clutch with no flywheel, lightweight pistons, titanium connecting rods and crankshaft, new diffs - and all the other nice stuff er know about, remoove the heavy paints and windows - and the journey would continue. The Porsche Museum at Stuttgarts has a police porsche in such trim in display actualy (the windscreen being just a small slice of lightweight glas, right from a GT Porsche from the track, etc.) - lowered, with aeroparts from the speedtunnel, handbuild and refined engine, etc. - a gift from Porsche to the Stuttgart Autobahn police some 20 years ago. Now on display. 🤗
@@JamesBrown-ux9ds - of course you're right about all of that, but it sounds like the sanctioning body and the class he's competing in will limit what he can do. I was seriously wondering why he picked an Xi model as the steering ratio is slow and the car is quite a bit heavier due to the front differential and driveshaft. Hoping that he clears this up in some future videos. I really didn't like how slow the steering rack is in the Xi model compared to the 330i.

Im A girl and I love cars and people tell me I can't like cars because I am a girl but you have inspired me so much so Ty and never lose hope and don't listen to haters love you vids❤❤❤❤❤❤
True. I used to have a 2011 Camry that was sonically beautiful, music sounded so good in it, couldn't hear much outside. Then I got a 2016 and it was noisy as hell. Even going through the car wash, sounded like a tin can rattling with some change in it and the sound of the music sucked too. Completely different than the 2011.
My old Yaris was so loud on motorway that I used noise canceling headphones on longer drives. But those old 1.3l Toyota engines never consumed motor oil.
1 pound would be at max 4 pounds, but that only depend on the distance from the center, if you remove a nut for example wont change much but if you change the tyres it would be the max difference
That last zero to 60 run and the pure excitement…priceless! Oh, and I’m a car audio guy and didn’t know about the dry ice trick for removing sound deadening. You just plain rock! Thanks for another dope vid, Chris 🤙
Cris can remove more weight from this BMW since he wants a track car by replacing some heavy metal body parts like: Hood (/Bonnet), Roof & Trunk with lighter fiberglass+reinforced carbon fiber parts and the heavy doors glasses with lighter perxplex then lighter rims and carbon ceramic brakes.. all things will definitely drop the weight even more..
If you want to see his face, go to one of his REALLY old videos. Specifically the video about tinting your windows. You can sometimes see his reflection in the glass. You're welcome🙂
@@rk22cc I think he just values his privacy more than anything doesn't want random people bugging him or finding out where he lives and stealing his stuff someone posted a video full of personal photos of him and calling him out as a bad friend/person and he was not happy, to say the least. It's kind of a meme at this point though.
@@rk22cc Chris probably has many reasons to hide his face. For example, someone seeing him and real life and annoying him to the point of insanity, and privacy in general.
I don't drive, I'm not into cars (although I know which ones I'd want if I won the lottery, lol), I'm not into racing (let alone enduro-racing) or car modding - but this video was strangely satisfying to watch. Thanks, YT algorithm!
I build cars in a factory and did quality control for our plant, so none of this was anything new to me. However it was actually really of cool seeing the steps that you saw for assembly being done in reverse for disassembly! It also amazes me just how similar stuff is put together in a BMW sedan vs a GM truck!
You made me recall a comment from senior guy from Chrysler, may be a VP level person saying the Mercedes, BMW and Audi folks procure the parts and sub-assemblies from the same folks from whom we procure and they end up charging a premium. I am not saying the up market cars are not premium, my point is they charge way too compared to certain enhancements they do compared to an ordinary run of the mill cars.
race car drivers go through lots of cardio and endurance training, too, for that exact reason. Low weight and high endurance, especially important for long races.
General rule of thumb is that every pound of rotating/unsprung mass is worth about 4 lbs of sprung mass. Unfortunately, there are big consequences to having smaller brakes and tires on the track.
@@jeremyphipps777 He doesn't have to get a smaller wheel. Stock he's probably on aluminum. He could get a forged wheel, increased the diameter size by an inch and still save some weight.
First thing ima do when I start making my race vehicle thanks bro this really helped me understand weight reduction a lot more getting to see the differences
Why not remove the sliding glass and slap some ballstic-grade plexliglass into everything except the driver door (net, obviously) and windshield (actually important, and worth keeping the shatter-proof coated glass)? That would also let you delete the interior trim on the doors, which you stated was only required so that it could contain the glass when the windows are rolled down, and the window motors, which is AT LEAST another 30-40 lbs...
When putting a flexible panel like a sunroof delete in, start with the center bolts and work your way out to the corners. Same principle as tightening a cylinder head in the correct sequence to prevent warping.
There’s over 7 billion people in the world and over thousands of millions of people who use the internet. Trust me there will always be someone who’s interested in whatever content is put out there. Don’t underestimate the power of the internet use it to your advantage.
Imagine how much more weight you could remove with changing the wheels, removing exterior plastics, power mirrors, headlight washers, extras from under the hood, plastic covers.
Good joke, but Hotrod tv actually discovered on a dyno their chevy v8 made like 15-20% more power at about 40% oil level . Real talk. They tested at full, then pull oil out and made more power
Replacing the rims would also do alot... just get some really lightweight and you could gain well over 10 hp because the engine won't have to rotate as much weight to get the vehicle moving. This typically has a larger impact than simply removing weight off of the body because it is what the engine spins rather than what it is trying to move.
this is very important, i think its something like "every 10lbs of rotating weight is equal to 100lbs of sprung weight". And those factory aluminum rims are heavy easily 40lbs each, so you can shave off 100lbs in rims alone and drop 1 sec in the 1/4 mile
@@user-gd1mm7gw8k 4 tenths ain't nothing to scoff at from just a rim change, anyways all i was saying was that rotating/ unsprung weight counts a lot more then sprung weight and its a sneaky way to get considerable performance improvements if you're racing in a class that takes weight into account.
I finally got a 500gb ssd a couple months ago and a 3gb hdd and holy fk am I glad I did. These drives are affordable now for a decent brand. Luckily I don't game that much or else I'd be flat broke, but hell I can barely even download games now because my ISP limits me to 150gb a month and a lot of games are that size now. They have software now so you can easily clone your OS onto the new drive. Everyone likes a fresh install but man that's soooooo much easier. I cloned both my drives. Maybe test your drives with Sentinal to see how much longer you got left, might need to do it soon since some SSD's fall apart quick. And get a cheap HDD dock for your spare drives. Those things are great.

That's because it's a BMW not all cars have this much stuff🤡
If I made it as light as possible, I would also replace all the glass with plastic. You no longer have to worry about pieces of glass and you can strip even more.
For some reason, the wires to these speakers were already disconnected.
BMW: They were connected, but since you did not pay for the $5,000 sound system upgrade, we disconnected them.
Seems about right 😂
True 🙂
They're already aftermarket Kicker speakers so the last owner did it.
You can also remove the indicators, no one who drives a BMW uses them.😂😂
ye same. my 3 series is sick
And the speedo
Honestly I don't know why is this the case for BMW drivers. Because I just got a MINI and the indicators are amazing. Subtle and deep clicking sound for indicator sound.
What even makes it the best indicator system I've tried is that the indicator goes two clicks each direction. click them once and the indicator indicates 3 or 5 times depending on your settings you selected. This is such a useful feature when I want to change lanes and not have to manually stop the indicator. I just set it to indicate 5 times, so that I let it indicate three times while driving in my lane and then start changing lane while the last 2 indicates are going. Perfect lane change with seamless effort.

The engine block is pretty heavy, taking that out will reduce weight significantly!

the aluminum m54 block is surprisingly light, actually lighter than most cast iron 4 cyls

Wow, just realized the amount of stuff in a car that is there just to provide comfort for the drivers and the passengers. Really makes u appreciate life
I personally tried this and found the car lost a ton of weight when I took out the engine block and replaced it with a cardboard box. I also replaced the shock absorbers with slinky toys; finally I took out the suspension crossmember and replaced that with some metal bars I welded together. On an unrelated note I’m typing this comment in the hospital.

That's a good weight saving! Some more weight saving thoughts: you can also remove the AC Compressor and use a shorter belt. Remove power window motors and fix the position of the windows if allowed. Remove the cabin air heat exchanger and piping. Replace heavy door interior panels with fibreglass coverings if allowed. Replace glass side windows with clear plastic if allowed. Remove cabin air ducting if allowed. Remove the catalytic converter and add a straight pipe to the muffler.

The dry ice part is a nice tip. In the cleaning industry there’s a product used to freeze bubble gum and remove from surfaces. For such a big removal though, dry ice is a great idea.
PRO-TIP : Dry-ice blasting is also incredibly great for blasting under the car to clean remove rust & make the belly shine+ any other mechanical parts like, steering-rack, suspension A-arms & bushings, engine oil-pan, the intricate gearbox housing pattern, remove the dust on brakes+rims just looking like brand new again..

As a lifetime automotive weight weenie myself, I want to let you know that you're officially my 'Hero of the Month'. I'm truly impressed with your video due to your passion for what you do and also your willingness to obtain the data to back it up. I talk about improved acceleration, handling, and braking all day...but being able to legitimately quantify it is the real deal! Bravo my friend, and keep up the great work!
Yes - so right! ... And now he should next have the car lifted up, all engine, drivetrain and axles removed, and refitted with the usual lightweight parts, race clutch with no flywheel, lightweight pistons, titanium connecting rods and crankshaft, new diffs - and all the other nice stuff er know about, remoove the heavy paints and windows - and the journey would continue.
The Porsche Museum at Stuttgarts has a police porsche in such trim in display actualy (the windscreen being just a small slice of lightweight glas, right from a GT Porsche from the track, etc.) - lowered, with aeroparts from the speedtunnel, handbuild and refined engine, etc. - a gift from Porsche to the Stuttgart Autobahn police some 20 years ago. Now on display. 🤗
@@JamesBrown-ux9ds - of course you're right about all of that, but it sounds like the sanctioning body and the class he's competing in will limit what he can do. I was seriously wondering why he picked an Xi model as the steering ratio is slow and the car is quite a bit heavier due to the front differential and driveshaft. Hoping that he clears this up in some future videos. I really didn't like how slow the steering rack is in the Xi model compared to the 330i.

Exactly true. 1 pound off a wheel is huge.

1 pound would be at max 4 pounds, but that only depend on the distance from the center, if you remove a nut for example wont change much but if you change the tyres it would be the max difference

I build cars in a factory and did quality control for our plant, so none of this was anything new to me. However it was actually really of cool seeing the steps that you saw for assembly being done in reverse for disassembly! It also amazes me just how similar stuff is put together in a BMW sedan vs a GM truck!
its the same company
You made me recall a comment from senior guy from Chrysler, may be a VP level person saying the Mercedes, BMW and Audi folks procure the parts and sub-assemblies from the same folks from whom we procure and they end up charging a premium. I am not saying the up market cars are not premium, my point is they charge way too compared to certain enhancements they do compared to an ordinary run of the mill cars.
It's very similar to the old Audis as well. I was really impressed that the steps were basically the same.

You forgot the most important part - lightweight wheels and tires. That’s dynamic weight so every pound you cut will feel x3 as much as static.
100% agree with you there, it’ll make the biggest difference in weight, handling and grip!
Uh he did say at the beginning of the video that he will be replacing the wheels and brakes eventually, but not now, if I'm not mistaken.
General rule of thumb is that every pound of rotating/unsprung mass is worth about 4 lbs of sprung mass. Unfortunately, there are big consequences to having smaller brakes and tires on the track.
And only use 3/5 wheels nuts to save weight. And grind down the driveshafts to make them thinner to save weight.
@@jeremyphipps777 He doesn't have to get a smaller wheel. Stock he's probably on aluminum. He could get a forged wheel, increased the diameter size by an inch and still save some weight.

Why not remove the sliding glass and slap some ballstic-grade plexliglass into everything except the driver door (net, obviously) and windshield (actually important, and worth keeping the shatter-proof coated glass)? That would also let you delete the interior trim on the doors, which you stated was only required so that it could contain the glass when the windows are rolled down, and the window motors, which is AT LEAST another 30-40 lbs...
When putting a flexible panel like a sunroof delete in, start with the center bolts and work your way out to the corners. Same principle as tightening a cylinder head in the correct sequence to prevent warping.

Replacing the rims would also do alot... just get some really lightweight and you could gain well over 10 hp because the engine won't have to rotate as much weight to get the vehicle moving.
This typically has a larger impact than simply removing weight off of the body because it is what the engine spins rather than what it is trying to move.
this is very important, i think its something like "every 10lbs of rotating weight is equal to 100lbs of sprung weight".
And those factory aluminum rims are heavy easily 40lbs each, so you can shave off 100lbs in rims alone and drop 1 sec in the 1/4 mile
No ratio is 1:4
Cant get 1s of 1/4 mile, i have tryed 20" vs 15" difference was 0.4s but using better tyres for better grip will help more.
And then u don’t have to take them on and off every time changing tyres
@@user-gd1mm7gw8k 4 tenths ain't nothing to scoff at from just a rim change, anyways all i was saying was that rotating/ unsprung weight counts a lot more then sprung weight and its a sneaky way to get considerable performance improvements if you're racing in a class that takes weight into account.
