id guess an s13 is between 50 and 150lbs lighter than an s14 when you’re measuring JUST the shell, with the coupe being a bit heavier perhaps due to the rear speaker deck (no glass involved)

**When** I win Varun’s SR next weekend I’ll let you guys know exactly how much the SR weighs. Hurricane has a KA24DE at his place and we will weight that one too and settle this. 😃

Well I started to strip a spare hatch I have here @ the shop since the one on my car needs to be repaired…

Well I just glanced throu this list… [http://www.mysportscar.com/features/project240/weightsavings/index.htm](http://www.mysportscar.com/features/project240/weightsavings/index.htm) and didnt see anything which is listed below

So I pulled off that POS Spoiler, removed the Brake Light, removed the Whiper Motor/Arm as well as all the wiring (expect the rear defrost) and then weighted it all…

Almost 18lbs alone removed from just the Hatch
