Question Front counter weight, weights?

Alright.

Does anyone know what the weights of a S4 counter weight and S5 counter weight weighs? (89 - 91 as the 92 seems to have a different counterweight according to the FSM)

S5/S6 rotors are the same thing and weigh less then S4 rotors, so i'd asuume the counter weight would be less. same with the rear counterweight

Rear counter weight is in the flywheel on manuals. I mean, the flywheel is counter weighted.


You can consider that S4 Flywheels weigh more than S5/S6.

Not sure why then but the 89 - 91 FSM lists a front counter weight for up to 91 and the another for 92.

Food for thought.

But your post still doesn't answer my question. I didn't ask what s5 and s4 rotors weight i asked if anyone knew the specific weight of the front counter weights.

Anyone know..??

Well, while tryin to find that Info,I "read 'Too!..so the best I can come up with is the Stamping on the counterweight Itself to Establish the difference.Other than that it is really hard to Tell the difference(I couldn't find anywhere/anyone who has "weighed" them and posted Results.)
