    Where Can I have my car weighed?

    Hey guys after dropping some weight in the car and getting coilovers. I would like to try to corner balance the car.
    Or at least weigh the car to get an idea where I'm at.
    Located in irvine.

          are you a local cca member? if so check with them, here in NJ there is a set which is owned by the club, people just take turns using it.

              Evasive motorsports does it. They did it when I went to get my car aligned amd corner balanced.

                So after the recent weight reduction mods, I had the car weighed.
                • 2,460 lbs
                • no driver
                • a little over half a tank of gas
                im happy with that.

                  Truck stops are good too. Wont do left to right, but they do front/back.

                    Wow, what exactly did you do to the car? I last weighed my car after the swap and I weighed in at 2700ish.. Deleted all of the ac and heater core at the same time

                    Good stuff

                        Wow!

                        I have nothing deleted, and a lukebox 10" sub+amp added. I am at 3001 lbs with driver (175lbs) and half a tank of gas. I bet yours is a little rocket at autox too! Corner balanced and the car felt SOO much better!!

                          When the time comes to replace the clutch id like to get a my flywheel lightened and maybe an s50 clutch.
                          and get a lighter set of wheels
                          i love kosei k1's with hankook rs3 for autocross duty.

                            Agreed, the K1s and RS3s are a hard to beat combo for style,functionality and price. 10lb 15s would be nice though ;-) Had the same myself last year.
