I'm out of the country right now, but if I remember that radio with face plate is about 6 Lbs with out the heavy speakers. The void could be used for a monster autometer lightweight tach or what ever. That is rather light for a B-boy.
As the title to this thread implies, I will reveal the real weight real soon as well with a thorough explanation. Good luck ThumperD with the reveal. I do hope for sub 3000 as well, then you can really go for kite flying school. LOL.

The guy w/the scales is a "no-show"so no biggie at this point and he`ll show up. My obsession has actually been lifted strangely enuff since this job kicked my azz so I`ll patiently wait.

He called me this morning and said this evening he`ll bring em by..............says he "spaced it". Too funny cos he`s only 26 years old and told him to report back to me when he`s 51. NOW I`m gettin itchy to see where we`re at and determine what else to remove...........I`ll post the results tonight or in the morning.

Any tips or tricks I need to be aware of while scaleing my car? Like does it have to be perfectly level and I heard tire pressure influences the readings........... Thankxxx.........

Your rear weights look good to me but mine are WAY off but after looking at my car on the scales, the ft. end is still not settled so I`ll mess w/it some more............

That looks to me to be 3006lbs, My 3039lbs looks pretty close. I wish mine was that light.

Dom, what was your tire pressure?

35 ft ?
What was the rear?

What other places were you going to remove weight?? Good to see you getting about 200 lbs off of it so far

Rears were 12 lbs. and the ft`s were 38..............Still going to a lexan ft. glass in the stock rubber, lower strut rods(alum)and ft. race tires which I would hope would remove another 25+ lbs. from the ft..................
