Some guy told me it weighs 2900 pounds is that right? I though it was 2700. I need some back up here. Was I wrong?

 

I was coming to do the same thing LOL

***EDIT***
I found it.

Those numbers are usually off by quite a lot... go weigh your car.. it's a couple of bucks, and it's always nice to know your weight...

Where can you weigh your car at? Only time I ever see scales is in the middle of nowhere on the side of the highway for semi's.

 

check this sight out.....

I'm not sure where you weigh the car... ask Kahren, I know he weighted some of his cars. I maybe speaking out of my ***, but I seem to remmember something about using truck stops... their weight stations.... I could be wayy off though... I can ask Kahren later.. or maybe he'll see this post... *srhug*

Sorry I couldn't help much..

mine tipped the scales solid at 2900lbs...half tank of gas....full weight...no lightening....weighed it at moroso

 

find a good alignment shop, i think they should have equipment to weigh your car.

 

Weighed mine at the drag strip. Weighed me in at 135 (correct) and the car at 2760 w/ a full tank of gas and some tools (without me) and 2895 with me. She was bone stock except for the Tri-Point 9.5lb flywheel.

 

weighed mine on courner scales:
2838 without driver or gas

 

WTF!! they have an article on CYM fd's and the link dont work!! WAHH!

 

when they smog your car they usually weigh it also... 2,700 is for the r1 and r2 (and that's wayyy off anyways). And the touring editions a bit more heavier

 

factory says 2789 for base, 2800 (i think exactly 2800) for R1/R2 (remember they have strut braces, spoilers, extra oil cooler = weight) and about 2860 for a touring.

THese are all manual

 

Yamagichi book lists curb weights as:
base - 2789 lb (A/T - 2857)
R1 - 2800
Touring - 2862 (A/T - 2923)

I have Mazda sales brouchures from 93 and 95
93 says 2789 (A/T 2857)
95 says 2826 (A/T 2881)

When I corner balanced my 94 touring with a 1/2 tank of gas/no driver, it was 2724 lbs. Mods at the time: DP, RB CB, M2 CAI, , RP crank pulley, y-pipe, GAB strut tower bar, N-Tech mini-battery, 17lb steel flywheel, and M2/AD shocks.
