weight of s14 zenki

ust for anyone that is curious i weighed my car down at the track today, 1525lbs in the front and 1178lbs in the rear for a total of 2703 lbs (if you do the math that's a 56/44 weight distribution)

this is on a manual '95 SE, a half tank of gas, and the spare tire/jack removed, light weight battery, and wiper fluid system removed.

p.s. i looked it up and saw that several sites have 2761lbs posted as the stock weight for the 95 SE

nice i have a redtop sr i hear they are a few lbs lighter then the ka but i killed that with my fmic lol. the s13 had more balanced weight but the put more weight in the front of 14 on purpose to eliminate the understeer and give the car neutral steering

you are right yes, sorry i thought we were still talking about the se models

so to clarify:
'89-'90 s13 = 2651lbs
'89-'90 s13 se = 2684lbs
'90-'94 s13 = 2758lbs
'90-'94 s13 se = 2758lbs
s14 zenki = 2753lbs
s14 zenki se = 2761lbs
s14 kouki = 2800lbs
s14 kouki se= 2859lbs

this is all according to autos.msn.com, i use them because i have weighed several different cars i have owned and they tend to be pretty accurate. i just wrote down the lightest weights here for the '89-'94 because obviously the coupe/fastback/se/le models will all have different weights, so refer to autos.msn.com for the specific weight of your vehicle
