Default What's the lowest weight you've gotten a CX hatch down to?

Trying to figure out how low these can go with a D series engine, gutted, lexan but no cutting of the body?

probably better to ask roadracing forum because you have to weigh your car at the race track when racing....

I'll let you know here in a couple of weeks. The lexan windows should be here Tuesday or Wednesday, and the carbon appendages should arrive by the end of next week.

I got a 94 DX down to 1870ish with all original body panels, all original glass, full exhaust, a B series, a 5 lug conversion, and a full tank of gas.

Haha...a coupe is 2 doors.

He weighed 2 doors with a b series engine and called it a coupe

I could see the cars shaved down a good 200 lbs, but the people that are doing that probably boost or swap the car, so it might be hard to figure out the true weight.

With lexan you will get it down to about 1750 lbs. But when you add a cage and rear sway bar you will get back up to about 1850-1900.
