Good point, im unsure, just asking now. 1393 kg is the official weight but I "think" that may be dry weight. Asked on VXRonline, will come back to you.


You and your weight saving, im sure ur get a load more off yet, look at the Corsa Mk2 (green one?)

Its not bad for a big car that y'know!!!

What do the R33's and R34's weigh?

My old dear has a weigh bridge at her works but its not been used properly or calibrated for years. The Tuscan made 1033kgs on there a few months back, not 100% accurate but not far off. Would be happy with 400bhp per ton though!

JR - it feels faster... much faster than the corsa

The corsa had about 210bhp, and was maybe 800kg - so 263 bhp/ton

Daimo - Na... it was quick but never really had it running 100%. The times we had the corsa and skyline on the skyline was bog standard, and getting passed by the corsa.... pretty even on the straights though.

The corsa simply wouldnt have a hope in hell with the skyline now to be honest.

Adam's had some of those inflatable slides you get on passenger jets installed in each door Fee.

In the event of an emergency landing on water they can be detached and used as Li-Los too.
