The search function is out of order... *arrrghh*

I need to know the weight of an Complete Ultima GTR with gas. If possible I also need to know the weight balance.

Please don't guess... I need facts!!

THANKS!

Hi. Don't know if this helps. The factory site quotes 990kg for its current gtr demonstrator. Doesn't mention if thats with or without fuel.

Thanks guys!!

I actually got hold of proffesional scales (intercomp) late last night so we weighted my car.

Let me say that we are very pleased with the result

997,5 kg WET with driver (half full tanks)
Balance 60/40 rear/front

This is with aluminium V8, drysump system, twin turbo's and intercoolers.

I guess it will add a few more kilos before the car is 100% finished.

Needed weight information for building the dampers.

BTW Our "suspension guy" where very impressed by the linear movement in the suspension. One of the best he have seen.
