Weight of the JDM Evo SST

corner weighted .. nice .. except for maybe the battery need smaller battery on racedays

3 gals of fuel left
4 6" speakers and 2 tweets
1 15lb amp at the rear
Tire repair kit removed (yea .. we don't get spare tires ) (17lbs)
3425lbs (very close to the claimed 1540kg for SST)

i wonder what is a real difference between the JDM MR and the USDM..
i have a GSR , and my front weights 902.649 kg. 1990lbs
My rear does 618.7 kg 1364 lbs.
But i did not had a rear seats and empty trunk. Washer fluid full just as my gas tank.
So like that, my weight distribution is 59% front and 41 %rear./ GSR/

Any body did a MR corner wight in the US?

There is 18kg difference in the front. probably the SST. Although it should be more then that: 39.68 lbs.

Might be i have wider rims and tires.
Good info anyway . Thanks

Hey .. it should be 20kg since the SST is quoted to be 20kg heavier than manual ..

Still on standard Heavyass Enkeis .. waiting for a nice set of rims to float by ..

Change the rims and the brake rotors to Girodiscs .. I should be able to shave 8kg off with the rims (RE30s) and 10kg with the Girodiscs 2pc (maybe more)


BTW found out the crash beams on the JDM front and rear are high strength aluminium .. not metal bars ..
