BlueCalx 05-17-2002, 05:35 PM I wanted to know what my car weighed, so today I went to Mintz Scrap Iron and Metal and weighed the someb*tch.
Including 8 gallons of gas, the fat bastard weighed 3460 lbs. <img src="http://www.spartanburgracing.com/cgi-bin/ikonboard/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wow.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':0'> I didn't know it'd be that heavy. No driver/passengers in it.. only the gas, subwoofer and amp.
Just throwing this out there mainly because this forum hasn't seen any activity in like 3 months. <img src="http://www.spartanburgracing.com/cgi-bin/ikonboard/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=';)'>

<font color='#000000'>an SN95...
with no gas, no driver, and maybe a little weight reduction
<-- 3380 full tank, driver <img src="http://www.spartanburgracing.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'></font>
<font color='#0000FF'>How much lighter is an LX trunk car?</font>
Texas89LX 10-16-2002, 07:37 PM <font color='#000000'>notches should be around 3100 wet
there is no way your car weights less than mine
maybe as much as mine... but not lighter</font>
<font color='#0000FF'>Yeah my car heavy <img src="http://www.spartanburgracing.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wow.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':O'> .</font>
VetteGuy 10-20-2002, 10:55 PM <font color='#000000'>My car's supposed to have a 3200 curb weight, I'm not sure what it is now, though.</font>
<font color='#000F22'>Full tank, full driver=3,465. Thats with my tools, spare, sway bars, etc...</font>
ZoominMX-5 11-25-2002, 07:29 PM <font color='#000000'>my miata's curb weight according to edmunds.com : 2293 lbs
wow</font>
<font color='#000F22'>You should have seen the turbo Miata that was street racing at Nopi. It hit 3rd and got sideways. That thing was mean <img src="http://www.spartanburgracing.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/mad.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':angry:'> .</font>
ZoominMX-5 11-26-2002, 09:43 PM <font color='#000000'>Yeah turbo miatas are awesome. If i was going to get a turbo, id get a flyin miata kit, the 5,000 dollar one. Then i'd upgrade the internals and pump up the boost! weeee
340hp+2300lb car = one hell of a fun car.
It'll be a while before i start making that much money though. I figured id concentrate mod money on mostly suspension work, and other various stuff, cuz you really can't make a miata real fast without forced induction</font>
Uglymexican19 11-26-2002, 10:50 PM <font color='#E77471'>does yours have a front lip that makes it look like a small rx7?</font>
ZoominMX-5 11-26-2002, 11:05 PM <font color='#000000'>Nope. I know the ones your talking about though, im thinking about getting one...its only 115 bucks new...</font>
Hsnite 11-26-2002, 11:36 PM <font color='#F52887'>I still want a Miata! <img src="http://www.spartanburgracing.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sad.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':('></font>
