    I weighted my car a while ago, but have lost my corner weights.
    If you have a 94-01 Integra GS-R!, and you have had your car corner weighted, can you send me the values?

    Also, indicate if it was with you in the car.

    Let me know how your car differed from stock too.

    Thanks!

    Jeff,

    If this is for the new shocks/springs, it won't do you much good. Nobody's car is going to be just like yours. You really need to go and have it weighed again so everything will be accurate.

    Shock tec said if it's within 10% of what it really is it's close enough.

    They can calculate some other numbers, from the HD Bilstein rates, using the stock spring rates, and the weight of the corners. They try to make it as acurate as possible.

    I asked a local guy who road races his 95 GSR and auto-x's DSP about corner weights.

    Here's what he said, athough he never got weighed: "I have 600lb springs and stock sway bar on the front and 450lb springs and Ground Control 25mm race sway bar on the back. I had to go to 600 on the front due to bottoming with the 500's I started with."

    He also has ground control coilovers a quaife, full roll cage and R compound tires, so YMMV.

    From my racing days... "How dare you ask a question like that"... That's a cardinal sin. j/j smile

    Anyway, from my experiance, most of those guys have had to figure out that stuff for themselves, and if anybody did tell them something, they would have to take it with a grain of salt.

    I have read in a few places, some race shops well weigh it for you.... just depends

    I have not tried this, and wondering if it would work. If you went to a truck scale, and just position the car with one tire on the scale, for each of the four corners, and then back and front. Crunch the numbers and see if they come close to what you already know about it. Front to Rear ratio from what the factory stuff says and so fouth. smile
