Can anyone tell me what this is for..?
While i completley gutted out the inside of my gtv6 i came across this hose which just popped out whist stripping out the floor matting near the pedals.
I simply got no idea what it is...

Yeah, pics' pretty bad. Is it your A/C condensate drain hose? I also think there is a drain for the front fresh air vents that's located under the dash. It shouldn't be the sunroof drain hoses as they go through the A pillars into the rear of the front wheel area behind the riveted cover plate. I have removed these plates and drilled relief holes at the bottom then re-attached the cover plates with SS screws. This makes periodic cleaning easier.

Thankyou Brook, thats it! I should have known, for i removed all the a/c hosing, compressor, everything, never to go back in, and that i should have spotted lol. Thanks mate.
I cant believe how much weight is with all the a/c hosing, compressor,
its ridiculous! That with the airbox gone, the 6kg of my turbo is nothing!!

Well the weight with the compressor and all the a/c hosing
was close to 20kg. Around 18kg.
Also even though i didnt weigh it, all the old shag-pile sound deadener
would have been around 10-15kg. So already have taken nearly 30kg of weight out. Of course new sound matting going in, but will weigh nothing
compared to the shag-pile.

When I pulled the AC system out of my old GTV I weighed it, the big old iron Yorke compressor, lines, condensor and all the ironmongery to fit it weighed in at 25kg... and removing it made a noticeable difference to the way the car turned in and accelerated. I'd say its definitly wort removing for racing
