Tyron Devine Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 As above I was just wondering what weight these wonderful cars are from factory I no they are just over 900kg but not sure what figure. Was also wondering how much the air con weighs all in. putting my car on a bit of a diet and would just like to see what weight it's roughly around. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Tyron Devine Posted April 23, 2013 Author Share Posted April 23, 2013 Just as I thought.. Any idea how much the air con unit weighs ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gainzy Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 The full unit weighs a good 16kg plus! I would definately remove it Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tyron Devine Posted April 23, 2013 Author Share Posted April 23, 2013 it's already been removed mate.. as well as all the rear plastics.. front plastics.. carpet and so on just trying to get a rough idea of how much the car weighs now. Spare wheel etc* Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gainzy Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 Am wondering how much too to be honest av taken all mine out av left the rear plastics in, even though they would be worth say 5kg av just ordered a lighter bonnet I reckon al be close to 870kg Quote Link to post Share on other sites
morgey Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 Depends on what model you have really, can range from about 920kgs poverty spec dry weight (no fuel)These have no mod cons, or even parcel shelves to 960kgs dry (no fuel) with a fully speced one.Thats sunroof model with electric everything rear shelf with speakers etc Get it on a local weigh bridge at a dump or sand pit, even somewhere like an abattoir will have one, some charge some don't.and a dry car is no oils of water so add 4.5kgs for oil 2-3kgs for water and washer fluid and dont for get a full tank of fuel is about 40-45kgs so dont be suprised if the weight is up in the 9**kgs fairly But aftermarket parts also will bring the weight dont, coilovers, exhaust, wheels all weigh less than stock Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Amjad Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 If you wanna go crazy with weight reduction it's probably just best to get the weight down on things that are relatively heavy. Wheels, lower profile tyres, bonnet, mirrors, seats.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tyron Devine Posted April 24, 2013 Author Share Posted April 24, 2013 ive gone for the fully stripped look amjad not just for performance because I personally think it looks savage.. giving the whole inside a full respray Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Amjad Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 EP80 is a lot lighter than EP91 EP82 GT is around 860kg so EP80 without Electric accessories should be close to 800kg Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ryan lang Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 Don't forget to add your own weight to that. Also aftermarket suspension and exhaust are usually heavier than stock. Exhaust definitely Quote Link to post Share on other sites
StuDoc 72 Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 Its going to be almost impossible to work out the weight of your vehicle without having it weighed. Every mod you do alters the weight! Alloys are lighter than Steelies. Tyre sizes. How many times the car has been painted is a factor! Paint isnt light. Weighing it is the only real solution otherwise you are pretty much pissing in the wind. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
