I haven't weighed the chassis without the drivetrain. No, the cage is just a Jegster 6-point kit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Limitedslip7 Posted July 19, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 19, 2011 to much to ask to fetch some approximate numbers for me? I'll see what I can do. Taking it to the truck scales requires that I find a truck to borrow and then dollying it there. Maybe I can find someone with some scales around or some other way to weigh it.

Furloaf Posted July 19, 2011 Report Share Posted July 19, 2011 Wasn't it about 2450lbs with a stock 13bt, full interior? It can't be too much away from that, stripped + the cage now I imagine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It can't be too much away from that, stripped + the cage now I imagine. Maybe- my 4GX7 was about 2620 with a 6 point. This is not a turbo 2 though, I was told they are lighter. Does this thing have power windows? Sunroof? Open Diff also correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Furloaf Posted July 19, 2011 Report Share Posted July 19, 2011 I think it was closer to 2600lbs. Typo lol. It was a GTUs which were some of the lightest, I don't remember if the Base was less or not. Manual windows, no sunroof. He said he sold the differential so yeah I guess it is a very open diff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tinman Posted July 20, 2011 Report Share Posted July 20, 2011 JP, you won't find a better combination of clean shell/lightweight FC around. The GTUs is the lightest S5 FC. The only things that make it heavier than an impossible to find in good condition non sunroof base model S4 FC are parts you would strip off anyway, electric seat belts and beefier dash under structure.

You know ruffly what they weight? I was just asking because I really was set on an RB I think it was closer to 2600lbs. Typo lol. It was a GTUs which were some of the lightest, I don't remember if the Base was less or not. Manual windows, no sunroof. He said he sold the differential so yeah I guess it is a very open diff. Huh.

Tinman Posted July 20, 2011 Report Share Posted July 20, 2011 You know ruffly what they weight? I was just asking because I really was set on an RB Kind of a loading question, depends on cage, how much of interior will remain and so forth. If it helps any, my GTUs race car has an all iron 3800V6/T5 transmission, extensive rollcage, ~250lbs. of ballast. With my 145lbs. plus race gear and 1/8 tank of gas I cross the scales at 2870lbs. Minus me, gas, and ballast the car should be right at 2450lbs. Subtract the weight of a 3800 and T5 and you have your answer for a gutted and caged FC roller.

Limitedslip7 Posted July 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 20, 2011 I can't really find an accurate weight, but I can take it to the scales if you are serious about buying it. I'm pretty sure that an FB shell would likely weigh at least a hundred pounds less, if not more. The only problem is finding a FB that isn't rusted all to hell...

I can find them-I just cant get the turd's to call me back!!:dumb: Yes, I am serious. I miss my old one, and I want to do it again with the RIGHT trans behind it. Let me know if weighting it is an issue...I really just wanted to keep it under 2300 dry if possible, since and FB would be 2000-2100 dry all said and done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
