how much parts weigh
 

idk if sumbody has done this but
hope this helps

the wooden trunk cover = 7 lbs

the upper part backset with the bracket = 20 lbs

the lower part backseat = 11 lbs

the rear carpet = 3 lbs

spare tire = 49 lbs

rear speaker mounts = 4 lbs

stock non-power driver seat w/ lumbar supprt = 50 lbs

stock non power pass seat = 45 lbs

stock rims with 225/50/16 still new tires = 44 lbs

all of this came from an 88 non turbo supra
if that matters

this is a very good thing you are doin for the community,it gives everyone who is woried about how much wheight they can save and for those who are serious about racing... good job dude.... I bet many will thank for your time.

well, im trying my best
all of those netted to about 93 lbs,
tomorow im gonna try to weigh
the hood and the stock rims w/tires

just edit your first post and put the new things u weighed in so ppl dont have to scroll from page to page to find the part they are looking for.



u probably were gonna do this anyway though...

stock rims are supposed to weigh 23lbs each. Tire weight can vary depending on tire manufacturer. Different tire materials weigh differently. Just as an FYI.

well,
we'll all see tomorow
im gonna take out the seat too
both driver and passenger
so wish me luck that i dont mess nothing up lol

seats/ tires/ rims
 

i jus weighd the stock non power seats (pass&driver)
and the stock tires and rims

i was shockd on how much they weigh
and i had to keep weighing about 3 times to confirm it

i will post pics down here later
but results are up top

I know the rear wiper arm and motor assembly weighs about 3.5 lbs, maybe you could confirm that? And while your car is off the road, could you also weigh some stuff under the hood...I removed my cruise control assembly, charcoal canister, bracket for both, and all associated parts. I would like to know, and probably some other people too haha. Or ill just do it when i can. And, are you keeping the broke down NA? If you wana sell some parts off it, i need a driver door OUTSIDE handle..I bought one already but forgot to tell the guy i needed the outside and not the inside, so i have an inside door handle for sale if anyone wants it lol.

sorry, keeping the broke na
no parts for sale lol
but im using it to help everybody here lol

Oh ok. Continue weighing everything!! GJ so far. I would say getting weight off the front is key, I think adding weight to the rear would actually help the mk3 off the line some. In gt4 i added a 200 lb ballast to the rear of a mk4 supra with 800 hp and it took almost 1.5 secs off the 1/4 time, I know its just a game but it simulates traction and dynamic properties pretty well. So i would say move as much weigh to the back as possible, But I cant really think of anything but the battery lol.
