I truely live for the 306 ®
Build date: 29th October 1997 Wednesday's car
midweek madness

If you ever try and take out most of the dash and ventilation system, you will find out the real weight in a 306!!
There's lots of details, such as:

- "complete" dash with the tachometer and warning lights 3kgs... the standard weights a ton!!
- more than 15kgs lighter front and rear brakes.
- more grinding on the doors, plus the holes like eddie on it's former 6.
- 6kgs lighter mount for the alternator and PA system...
- 12kgs lighter wheels than the standard cyclones
- 12kgs lighter fibreglass bonnet and boot, comparing to the already lightened version that i had
- 7kgs lighter side windows and boot with 3mm polycarbonate
- more than 10kgs lighter battery and battery mount.
- 5kgs lighter drilled bumpers, using only two screws to hold them up...everything else was shaved, including foglights
- lighter electric power steering, using no oil reservoir, oil , oil tubes and PA pump.
- lightened door hinges
- lightened wheel hubs (front and rear with waved shape)
- less than 6kgs carbon bucket seat
...


The engine/gearbox is supposed to be around 14kgs lighter than the xu10j4rs, but i will confirm it later.

"I LIVE FOR THE 306"

Fibreglass usually is lighter than carbon fiber.
That´s not optimistic, that's just maths being done...i weight everything that goes in and out o the car, so the predictions can be accomplished.
That's a lot of guys that already done this kind of mods, but no one has done all of it in one car alone.

- you can add to the diet a single wiper conversion wich is almost 3kgs lighter and no rear wiper (2kgs'ish)
- new and simplified looms, 6kgs lighter
- no handbrake cables and it's system at the rear calipers, 1,5kgs off the car
- no exhaust protections, only keeping the the one below the gas tank...almost 2kgs off.
- slim fans conversion, 5kgs lighter
- alloy radiator, 2,5kgs lighter
- no disc brakes rear protection...(the use of the car in Portugal doesn't need that at all)
- fibreglass headlights. 4,5kgs lighter including the loom out for it
...

Midlife spotted the parts exactly...lolol

That was my first version of it, for standard 306 18mm hubs, using uniball's.
I now use 406 hubs, with a different kind of linkage to the suspension arm.

Eliotrw, i only used the s16 mounts for the alternator and PA pump wich is a lot smaller than the gti6 one.
Besides that, i've also made some changes, making it even lighter.
