Great

anasmak11 · 03-24-2010, 08:07 AM

so the Berk exhaust is about 20lbs heavier than FI?

theDreamer · 03-24-2010, 09:36 AM

Yes, of the exhaust reported FI is the lightest aftermarket, though I am sure some others are a bit lighter which have not been reported.

anyone have any info on stock brakes sport and non sport? sport and non sport rotor weights as well?

Equinox · 04-06-2010, 10:03 PM

stock sport FRONT rotors supposedly weigh 30lbs a peice on the 370z, according to racing brakes
Two-piece rotor (Open Slot) - 370Z (Sport) FRONT 2009

Which is more than my 19" rims.

Knives · 04-06-2010, 10:55 PM

Damn, 30 lbs. Definitely have to look into getting a two-piece rotor.

I assume the drilled weighs less than 19 lbs slotted rotors?

Figured it would be. Was assuming a little under a pound less per rotor.

Some stuff that I weighed, used a bathroom scale, may be off by a pound or so.
bc br coilovers 54 lbs / stock 55 lbs
HR springs 31 lbs / stock 17 lbs
ichiba 20mm ver 2 spacers almost 2 lbs

KW V3 coilovers are too cool to be weighed, chuck Norris will drop kick your bathroom scale.

NewYorkJon34 · 04-13-2010, 10:25 PM

^Awesome line lol, I ask cus I'm planning on buying them & was wondering what the weight difference was vs. the stock suspension?

i had 2nd, 4th and the reverse gears removed.... reduced weight by about 8-10 lbs. I regret removing the reverse a bit, but im getting used to putting it in neutral, opening the door and pushing with my foot, so its not so bad
