92 turbo, full tank of gas, forged pistons/rods, 6 speed, 16g, AWIC = 3087lbs (driver not included).
It was a truck scale though measuring in 10s of kg, so it might be 10-15lbs off :)

It's going on a diet during the winter.

Welcome to the BBS.

That's pretty light. The curb weight for these cars is around 2600 - 2700 lbs.

Where did you weigh your car at?

I weighed my car at a truck stop, a contributing factor of this car being lighter than normal is that i removed the entire AC system(except for whats under the dash), removed the seatbelts and brackets from the backseat. That may or may not have done the job to get it down to that.

Not that it affected the weight by more than an ounce or two, but i have also removed the thermostat and put in a really cool spaced washer for freer flow.

Mine has already lost 45lbs... I just removed the spare tire and cleaned up the ½ gallon of water beneath it.

'93 SS
Weight related mods: CES 3" catted TBE, custom AWIC, pulley, fender braces, Cusco F strut bar, smaller battery (-15lbs), wrx wheels 205/50/16 Falken Fk451 (?)

3060# no driver, 1/3 tank, spare removed


I just pulled the AC (weighed at 22lbs), and I run RS 6spokes in the summer now - but they weigh the same as the wrx wheels.
I'll weigh it again in the spring at the 1/4mi track, but I bet it'll be ~3040#

would like to get it 29xx# sometime down the road.
