Anyone else think we should have a stock weight thread? This thread could list every part such as hoods, wings, and trunks and how much they weigh stock compared to say a cf trunk or hood. Would be very useful because the only thing I know is my car weighs 3030 pounds with me in it and the stock wheels weigh in at 24 pounds. A total of 48 pounds from tires.

 

Start weighing your car then. That takes a LOT of work, but I agree it could be very usefull

 

Yeaa exactly. I did weigh my car at the track. I want to know before I buy stuff what it weighs, sucks not knowing that info. I think car companies should have to have a list of how much each part weighs in their computer system. Would make things alot easier lol.

 

I have a scale setup ill weigh it later this week.

 

This is def a good idea.

 

Heres a list of some items that I took out of my 2.4.

Where items were grouped together - this the weight of the box that they were in (less the weight of the box).

Rear Deck lid - 5 lbs
Spare Tire - 27.5 lbs
Jack and Tire retainer - 8 lbs
Rear Seat Bottom - 9.5 lbs
Rear Seat Back - 21.5 lbs
Seatbelts,R Headrests
and hardware - 13 lbs
Engine & ECU Covers - 3.5 lbs
Air Box, Floor Mats, Hood Mat,
engine hangers & misc. bolts - 19.5lbs

 

How much was the hood mat alone? Those things have some weight to em.

Thats always my first "mod" is to remove it

 

Awesome, can't wait to see how much hood weighs!

 

X2

responce must be at least 4 letters, so the X2 didnt go throught so let me say AUTOMERGE FTL!!

 

The stock hood mat only weighs 1 1/2 lbs. It's the lightest I've seen so far.

GM did good.

 

Stock I weighed 210 lbs

With optional clothing I weight 220 lbs

 

Stock steelies on the LS weight 16 lbs each. Tire Rack listed the stock tires at 18 lbs. each.

 

I would like to see how much my car weighs with the cf trunk and hood, and all the stuff i took out of the trunk.

 

Im going to weight it tomarow ill post the weight and weight splits with a 200lb driver

so it will look like this

LF=XXXlbs RF=XXXlbs
front to back %
LR+XXXlbs RR+XXXlbs
total=XXXXlbs

 

ingalls dampener, the mounts, the bwoody endlinks, DC bars, and the daul pass all add weight, but in the name of performance

 

Here's some specs on a c/f vented hood from Import Trenz from their site:
Made of Carbon Fiber, Weight: 15lbs
Uses OEM Stock Mounts and Hatch

Since the hood is drastically lighter than the stock OEM hood, you will not be able to use the gas shock.

Price: $637.50

 

Sory guys i have been really busy so ill post up the weight soon.

 

3128 lbs = SS S/C + full tank + me

 

Bumb Any Updates?

 

I know the SS/SC Tire and jack are about 35lbs. It would be a good idea to have "weight reduction" in the sub forums.

 

tomarow! ill weight it.

 

remove halfj99 and you shed a good 200 lbs :P
