Vehicle Weights

[Tony]

Alright, I'm just wondering what the weights of our cars are stock? I know the HF is lighter than the DX, the DX is lighter than the Si. But I do now know the exact weights.

My reasoning for asking is I finally got my car up on the scale and it weighed in at 2100 lbs...well actually 2248 but that was with me sitting in it. It also had some extra stuff in the back, but nothing major. I just wanted to see where mine sits compared to a stock one.

the wieght of your car is on the door jam, but the rough numbers are the HF was like 1980, DX was like 2100 and the si was 2300.

obviously these arent exact, but close enough.

Yea i knew it was supposed to be on that sticker, but mine is faded, and in many different pieces so I can't read it. I can't even see what Honda Recommends on the Tire Pressure.

What's done to your car to add weight? Do you have weight removed?
Does anyone know how much the doors weigh? I want to weigh my cdn. 91 DX because it doesn't have the seatbelts in the doors, but it has a shitload of things to add weight to it.. 16" wheels, DOHC engine, stereo with amp, 6X9s, 10" sub..

Wow - the Si is heavier than the SiR!!! I thought that it was lighter - my SiR weighed in at 1030 kilograms or 2270 pounds

i actually recently was looking at that to compare weight between my 88 DX and my buddies 91 eclipse low end model ...


my door said 3020 for the weight. 1600 front and 1400 rear weight.

eclipse had 3400 and change.

the weight on the door IS NOT, i repeat IS NOT the curb weight of the car. that is the gross weight fully loaded.. that means 4 150lb passengers and the cargo area loaded full.

I weighed my 91 DX with d16z6 on a truck stop scale.. it weighed in at 2180lbs with full interior.

[crxlvr]

yea dont go by that weight it says when its in the 3's like that, that is the safest weight the car can handle.

[crx hf]

Yeah i dont think an HF weights 2500lbs.Thats what my door says.

I weighed my STD Hatchback a couple of months ago, and without my system and without me in the car it weighed exactly 2080lbs

All that is done to my civic is the rear interior is gutted, and 15" konig wheels. Which really the stuff i had in the back of my car would have made up for the interior. So I don't think I'm doing that bad with 15" wheels on it.

Alright I weighed some stuff off the car that I'm parting out, let me know if you'd like to know what anything else weighs.

First off the door, without the door I weigh a mighty 160 pounds, witht the door I weigh a whopping 240 pounds, that's an 80 pound door friends. Now I removed the seatbelt and I come in at 230 pounts, that's a 10 pound seatbelt.

Now don't get upset 88-89ers, you may be more than 10 pounds lighter than us 90-91s, I'm sure when honda for whatever reason moved the belts to the doors they had to add reinforcements to the door. So by me removing the seatblet it may not be the same as the door without the belt in the first place.

Here's some other parts...

Hood=30pounds
Fender=might 3 pounds
Rear side glass= 10 pounds
Spare tire= 20 pounds
Jack=5 pounds

I cant' get the backseat out right now cause the unibody's fucked on this car and the way it got hit (on the passenger sider rear quarter panel) it pinched the seat together so that the pastic clips on the seat backs are stuck. I'll weigh it when I get it out.
