Windscreen water? It is from memory a couple of liters off. Plus 64 liters vs 90. No booklets, no extended leather. Idk.
p.s. radik delete is wayyy more than 18lbs thats almost the weight of the head unit. Take out all the speakers, cables and amplificator and it will be much more.
Try to remove almost all the washer fluid, bumparettes and plates, booklets and those small things, no removable carpets.
I'm actually a sucker for strippers (cars too) and what is the lightest weight spec possible and weight reduction mods. So please continue the investigation.

Some data points that should help, weights in lbs:
Radio delete (in Spyder) saves 9
Lightweight buckets save 24 (I was told euro seats save more back in 2015)
R interior saves 18
R intake and carbon fender saves 9
AC delete saves 26
Clubsport package adds 39
Measured weights from Sport Auto Supertests:
991.1 GT3 3192
991.2 GT3 3289 (with clubsport cage, etc)
911R 3045 (stripped, no AC etc)
GT3 RS clubsport package 3221
GT3 RS relatively stripped w/ PCCB 3164

I pulled these numbers from Porsche’s 911R video.
4kg Windows
1kg mag roof
4kg CF fenders and bonnet
20kg seats (LWBs presumably compared to 4 way sport seat plus)
23kg AC and radio delete
5kg insulation (under carpets, package tray)
.5kg door handles
57.5kg total
Video says it is 70kg total below a GT3 which, other than the above, is mainly 6MT (with LWFW) v. PDK and probably includes the wing.
