I just got started this year in an 84 GTI also. I am at about 2150 and I weigh 300 naked (try not to think too much about THAT)

So I would be down to 2100 if I was as slim as you! And that is with heavy Audi wheels, the evaporator still under the dash, and much underbody soundproofing left to grind off.

The GTI can make weight easily, so I need to find another excuse for hiding at the back of the pack!

After reading that, now I'm worried about the scales. I'm running 13lb wheels, no evaporator, and about half of the factory soundproofing.

I wonder if my cage is just stupid heavy...I have not measured it and done the math to establish the total cage weight.
