Default 4th gen owner, i need a measurement

since my 4th gen is currently in peices, would it be possible for someone to measure the width of their car at the front wheels? just the outside of the wheel to the outside of the wheel on each side. doesnt have to be exact just so long as i get a close idea of the width

TIA

Actually neither, but I gave you the wrong one anyway....that was the width of the car. The track is 60 inches on the front, but I think that is measured from the inside of the wheels...


Width (in.) 69.5
Track (in., front/rear) 60.0/59.6

EDIT: I would measure for you, but mine is 200 miles away at the moment.

Well I would think that your thinking about some RWD action but you wanted the width at the front... Are you up to something crazy?

im such a ******* tard, i was all trying to do this **** the hard way, when all i had to do was walk to the next building and look up specs for both cars in the service manuals

4th gen lude front track width 60"
S2000 front track width 57.9"

this means i have to widen the S2000 subframe/engine cradle i have by exactly 2.1" in order to get the suspension to line up

Hope to see soon what you are planning, more in depth.
