J Taylor Posted June 24, 2005 Share Posted June 24, 2005 Been wondering what the car weighed for ohhhh, about 5 years now, so I finally took it to a weigh station today. Weighs 2920 with me in it. I weigh 220 so the car is about 2700 flat. This is with the rb25, 4 pt weld in cage, these very heavy 18x8 tsw wheels, and about 10 gallons of gas. Oh yeah, as far as weight distribution it was 1440 in front and 1480 in rear. Not bad. JT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wigenOut-S30 Posted June 24, 2005 Share Posted June 24, 2005 awesome jon, Not bad man.. Get rid of the heavy TSW's and you should be down a good bit. BUT THEY LOOK SOOO GOOOD!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SleeperZ Posted June 24, 2005 Share Posted June 24, 2005 That's nice. My '78 is 2600, without heavy wheels, cage or bumpers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
y-not Posted June 24, 2005 Share Posted June 24, 2005 Weighed my 280z/Ferrari GTO Ford 302 - 1370lb front 1630lb rear with me, a tool box and full tank of gas. It works out to 45.6% front and 54.4% rear. The driver and tool box totaled 200 lb. The Dayton wire wheels, tires and knock offs are 75lb each, for a total of 300lb.

stony Posted June 25, 2005 Share Posted June 25, 2005 Mine ended up being 51 front 49 rear with the RB 26 in it for total of 2750 with me not in the car and no gas in the tank. Mine was gutted with a stock dash with no heater core, one FRP racing seat and a mild steel 10 point cage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZXRockie Posted June 28, 2005 Share Posted June 28, 2005 That is just great, almost a 50/50 weight distributiom... seens like the rb25det is a perfect candidate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
