You should remove PS and AC too :D It'll take a lot of weight off .. and you dont really NEED them o.o

Which model has the manual windows, is it also the DX? I may have to look into that myself if I get so ambitious..

Is there any way to remove AC from a V6? I don't think there was a V6 model that came without AC as far as the alternator belt goes... You may have to get a custom sized belt if you decide to go that route.

I like my ac and it gets too hot in tx not to have ac. I will get lightweight pulleys though.

the 4cyl dx is the only one that had manual windows and no ac. you should do it.
