I weighed my Integra GS-R
I corner weighed my 97 GS-R. It has coilovers, and I have not adjusted them to equalize it, it was weighed just as it is.
Total was 2526 lbs
FL 845 FR 792
RL 446 RR 443
How does it compare to yours? I've got the rear seats removed, the motor has headers, 3'' exhaust, and a JRSC up front. HEAVY Kumho race tires + Kosei K1 race wheels. I've also got a heavy sway bar in back (26mm).

26mm rear sway bar?!?! I was going to get the 22mm Comptech bar, should I go thicker? I don't autoxross that often yet, just messin around on the road and track.
Don't get the 26mm bar unless you know what you are doing. 22mm is fine for the street. Usually you use a 26mm rear bar with an upgraded front bar, otherwise you will have a car which exhibits substantial oversteer.
well as of right now I don't have ny tie bars or sway bars, but here's my plan....
comptech 22mm rear sway bar and comptech tie bar, rear upper neuspeed or dc sports tie car, front comptech or neuspeed tie bar. haven't thought about front sway bar... what would be the best way to do all of this... best handling.... any ideas? am i way off track?

Just a note on the sway bar. 26 mm is big, but not as big as you think. It's adjustable. I wouldn't recommend it for the street, but for auto-x, it's fine, if you have stiff springs and shocks. If you're springs and shocks are NOT stiff, they the sway bar participates a lot, because of the body roll, and you'll get over stear on throttle lift.
Your cross weights are pretty good. You have a 51% wedge (LF+RR / TotalWeight).
Did you measure and adjust them with you in the car? What about fuel level? Tire pressures?
It all makes a difference but since the above (especially fuel) is constantly changing I would say it's close enough unless you want to squeeze out the last drop from your suspension. Believe me, to get that last 0.5% out of the weights will take a lot of chasing back and forth between the corners. It's a pain in the but.

Stock with me in the car 1/4 tank gas no spare 895LF, 839RF, 530LR, 475RR.
-180 my weight, car total 2560.
Last time on the scales with rear interior plastic and seat removed along with additional weight removed, on Kosei K1 15 X 7, Kumho V700 205 x 50 x 15, 877LF, 806RF, 475LR, 436RR -180 my weight, car total 2415.
With additional weight removal I am easily under 2400 now, and still have front interior, stock seats, A/C, P/S and ABS.
