Hmmm...I thought the 4th gen lude/H23 with 5spd was listed at 2866 and the 4th gen VTEC was even heavier than that. I'm guessing those #'s were with a full tank though. Where did you get your car weighed and how much did it cost?

and thats about right if you think about it... i was really low on gas when i got weighted... a full tank of gas is about 100 pounds.

Did you add your weight when you did the calculations?

Better let some skinny girl drive the car then. Or maybe a 8 year old that can barely see over the wheel.
