not that bad of a run for a Si....i think they said our cars weight 2700-2800

Manual SI curb weight is 2866 according to C&D, who also pulled off a 15.6, but that's C&D.

then why on the inside of my door does it say 3800 lbs.

yield · 11-07-2002, 09:38 PM

What you been smokin' smoky. 3800 lbs is like Sportute weight.

railsldr · 11-07-2002, 09:47 PM

umm On the inside of my door it says GVWR weight 3795 lbs. GAWR weight 2095lbs. What exactly do they mean.

SLICK96 · 11-07-2002, 10:03 PM

Jesuchristo!!! If my car really weighs that much, and I haven't known the truth this whole time, I really am going to get a turbo hatch.

I'll get a good pic of the label tomorrow my digi hates the dark (technology is too anal)

tommygun124 · 11-09-2002, 10:00 AM

anyone else actully get their car weighed? i think my slow times were in part due to my clutch which is almost dead now...... can shift w/o clutch

92 SI Ludester · 11-09-2002, 10:36 AM

i dont think our cars weight more than 2800 stock...i dont even think any honda weights 3800 lbs...but if i am wrong...turbo hatch it is haha

ludeact · 11-09-2002, 05:48 PM

Mine weighed 2995 with me in it (I weigh 175lbs) and my stock rims, and all my other crap on the car (bodykit, etc...)

LoudLude · 11-09-2002, 10:34 PM

My lude weighed in at a hefty 2920 lbs. I have 17s, 15" sub with big ass box, body kit... (basically a lot heavier than stock.)

SLICK96 · 11-10-2002, 03:14 AM

This is good... I tore all my subs, my box, my amp out of the trunk (after it fried for the 2nd time), and I have a c/f hood, no spare, no tool kit, no trunk liner, and I'm missing various other parts... maybe I'm at a hefty 2600 lbs... 2500 is my goal...

the gross vehicle weight on the label of the car is much higher than the curb weight of the vehicle. but all the cars are the same, i looked at the little gvw label on an integra and it said like 3700lbs and it really only weighs 2600lbs. so i dunno. maybe the gvw is if the car is loaded to capacity with passengers, all fluids full, trunk filled to capacity...etc...etc...

VeeTec · 11-10-2002, 09:50 AM

2,785 on average, with no spare tire or jack and a 1/4 tank of gas.

schrunk · 11-10-2002, 11:02 AM

Hah! My lude only weighs 2600 with a full tank! To bad its only a base 4th gen *cowers into cornor*

invaderlude · 11-12-2002, 01:47 AM

when i weighed mine at the track i was 2890 with me and a full tank.

Si4WS · 11-12-2002, 08:20 AM

Wow, cool info! I've had an on going argument with a fellow Lude owner that our cars weigh less then 3K, he even wanted to bet me $100! Now I know.
