1987 GXL
These were with the home scale, so they arent the most accurate.
instrument panel, with gauge cluster, speakers, amp, HVAC controls. No stereo. - 40#
heater box - 10# (some coolant left in core)
blower motor/box - 9#

1987 GXL
drivers seat, leather, w/mounting bracket - ~38#
again, home scale... it's almost 40# though! anyone know the weight of the other seats available? the pimpy one is standard in the GXL, I suspect it's the heaviest.

Here is a list of what I have removed, their estimated weights in pounds, and a total. I didn't bother to buy a bathroom scale because all I cared about was removing everything I could.
Hood (steel - alum. wt.) 30
Bumper Support 25
Washer Bottle 5
AC Compressor 10
AC mount bracket 1
AC bracket studs, bolts 1
AC Evaporator 10
AC dryer 2
AC Condensor 7
Tow Brackets 10
Tow Bracket bolts 5
Exhaust hangers 1
Engine bay brackets 1
Air Pump silencer 3
Brake Ducts 1
Dash reinforcement 10
Logicon & wires 5
Tar 35
Rubber mats 10
Rear anti-sway bar, mounts 10
TB Mod parts 2
Two (front) pulleys 1
Total of weight removed: 185
I found a truck scale and weighed the car, which is an 87 base with a five lug swap, 91 Coupe wheels with 205/60 Potenzas, stock exhaust, fire extinguisher, steel doughnut spare, stock aluminum jack, and ~2 gallons less than a full tank of gas. The car weighed 2420 pounds. The rear axle weighed 1220, for a 1200 / 1220 distribution front to rear, or 49% / 51%.

my goal is to hit 1100 kilos on the dot.
that would be perfect as i dynod my car at 210 at the wheels giving it a good power to weight ratio . right now its at 2600 pounds even but im gettting 8pound racing rims , and im going to be putting my sparco seats in and i have a stainless 1 side exhaust wich is alot lighter than stock.
my question is it possable to hit 2420 on a street driven t2 withought full stripped interior?
what does the sunroof weigh?
and the 3 inch thick foam underlay beneath the seats?
also has anyone weighed the sunroof **** ie glass motors ?
im thinking of getting it covered when i paint my car.
