ive been meaning to do this for a few months now. i am going to go over to the dumps with a gallon of oil to dispose of, pull up on the scale and see how much weight i have taken off my fit. i was wondering if anyone else has done this??

 

Curb weight on a 5MT Sport is around 24xxlbs.

 

i know what the curb weight is. but after new suspension, seats, steering wheel, cf hood & hatch and other weight reducing parts, and adding weight with stereo and sway bars etc, id like to know how much it weighs at this stage.

 

can an admin change the name of this thread to "has anyone weighed their modded fit"

 

Hey Kelso,
This is a little off the subject, but does this dump have an oil recycling receptacle, or is it just dumped? I'm not an EnviroNazi or anything like that, but for me it's easier to just take my used oil to the local auto parts place and pour it into the recycle tank. Just curious. And once again, please don't think I'm trying to get into your business. I'm a Libertarian.

And I will guess that you have reduced the weight of your car by 260 lbs. This is a total guess, not a scientific estimate. Be sure you fill your fuel tank before going on the scale, as a control measure.

Best to you.

 

hahahaha dude, this is the bay area. home of the evironazi.
that is a good guess. ill be sure and post weights once i have time to get over there.

 

You would definitely not lose 260lbs with those few mods. Maybe more like 50.

 

I didn't list all my weight reduction mods. I estimate about 100 to 150 lbs off.
