It's an Integra. Weighs 2540 wth me in it.

The hatch weighs 2400 with half tank of gas and me in it.. so the hatch is still over 100lbs. lighter.

2360 w/o driver, with A/C, PS, stock rims, spare tire, etc...
Also it was with no rear seats, no air bags, spoon seats, and with a 1/2 tank of gas.

Now currently its a lot lighter. By how much, we'll see on the track!

The topic is What did your R weigh in at, but then he starts off with a civic... so confusing...

For the record: GSR, fuel light on, no spare/jack, no junk, no me: 2550

I want my ITR to weigh 2300-2400 lbs without sacrifising too much.

I have no problems living without airbags..just the legality of it. And bumper supports, what would insurance say if you were to get into an accident without one?

Even Acura states that GSR/ITRs start off in the 2600 range. How are you guys shedding so much weight?

I think that's gross vehicle weight. If you look at that little sticker in the driver side door jam...it will probably say the same thing.

I have yet to figure out the difference between gvw and normal weight.
Anyone have insight?

where's the weight from on 00-01 US type R's vs. JDM R's with SRS, A/C, and ABS?
Lack of front impact bar= 30lbs
Lack of side impact bar in doors, etc...= 30lbs
Lack of rear impact bar= 30lbs
Lack of center impact beam= 30lbs
JDM R's have lighter parts (A/C bracket, header, etc...)= 40lbs.
Plus little things like lack of US center consol, no rear wiper, etc... =10lbs
TOTAL around 170lbs
Oh yeah JDM R rims are 5lbs heavier total (all 4). Plus JDM R seats are around 10lbs heavier then US seats total. So thats like 15lbs added. So its really just that the JDM R's have less safety in their car with all little bit more race (light weight stuff) and less little BS things. It all adds up.
Those numbers are estimates however stuff like that all add's up which is why US R's are still heavier. JDM= less safety US R's= more safety
