You have got to be kidding me? This is getting beyond ridiculous How many times are we going to have to go through this same joke. Once again as was stated before by several people the last time you brought this up.

The JDM version very well possibly could be 100lbs or so lighter due to it having less safety equipment however it is doubtful they changed too much because that would/could drive up cost and complications on the assembly line.

I don't think any one denied that fact. What was ludicrous was your statement about How there was more carbon fiber and titanium, and that they use different metallurgy specs because of the safety regulations being less stringent.

That being said. Rip out ur airbag system. Add more carbon fiber/titanium n aluminum parts and u hav a japanese Z. That can change the dynamics greatly and wouldn't be surpised if the japanese Z is 2900lbs.

first I will ask for proof that the reinforcements are aluminum and not steel on the JDM car (I wont even ask what reinforcements because well I dont want to LOL to loud at work!)

Secondly I have not once resorted to such immaturity as personally bashing some one so in seeing how childish you are I am going to just let this be because its pointless to argue with a 12 year old...

its very hard to find Z34 weight comparisons from jdm to US BUT was easy to show the difference on the z33. As a general theory that the japanese versions of this car is lighter is supported through seperate articles on each car.

One showing the fairlady to be around 1480kg = app. 3200 lbs which is shown in j garage.
And wiki search of the american car shows to be over 1600kg= app 3500lbs.
This supports what I stated about my friends fairlady being lighter than the 350z and also shows here a probability of this being possible with the Z34.

You wanted links. U got em.
As I stated my friends car was somewhere around 288lbs lighter. These 2 sights support what I said.

You might want to do a bit more research. The 350Z coupe weighed anywhere from 3188 to 3400 lbs (there was a 150 lb gain and corresponding HP boost in 2006). The only Z that weighed anywhere near 3500 lbs was the Roadsters (according to the WIKI, BTW). You are also comparing apples to oranges when you use an export garage's numbers because he's trying to sell you something. I'd trust Nissan's own numbers a bit more.

Perhaps, but I'd be more concerned with the comparison between apples to oranges of just model year and type. Even I don't know what trim level the websites I found were giving me, but at least I narrowed it down to the 2005 model year, so we can compare it to Mr. "I Import JDM".

Oh, and sights != sites.

specs by year and trim level at bottom of page...

..of course several guys at that other site claim Nissan is telling lies here.

Wow, and I took the time to give a nice well thought out post to show you that this board is above others and you prove my point in showing how low class you are. Either stop being a hypocrite and reply properly and take constructive criticism or leave.
