We have a set of scales at our shop. It was of no cost to me. Usually we charge $90/hr for balancing.

Damn. My 2000 model weighs in at 2713 with a half tank and tools/spare removed with the mugen exhaust and a heavier front swaybar.

Wow. I'd say that's pretty close for a totally stock car.
BTW, that blue is awesome.

So AP2s aren't much heavier than AP1's then.

Lets see, his car is 2842 lbs.

Your car is 2713.
+24.2 Mugen exhaust difference
+25 spare
+10 tools/jack
+39.6 (6.6 gallons, 6 lbs/gallon)
=
2811.8

So ~30 lbs?

There was probably a much easier way to figure that out.

But good numbers on the cornerweight.

Lets see, my AP1 (2000) is 2850 with me in it (145). That's also with a Inline pro turbo kit. Ended up being 50.4 front /49.6 rear. Not to bad I think

Nice numbers on your car

u adjust the preloads to make even

on triple perch setup u can adjust preload independent of height.. on double perch you adjust preload by changing height..

my car is corner balanced 50/50 25/25/25/25

makes her feel a lil more nimble..

but the most important part is putting yourself in the car. or equivilent weight..
Wow i'm suprised, does the car have uneven gaps visually? I don't really notice it in the pics.

Thanks for the comments guys. I just put on some CE28's that lightened up the car by a noticeable amount. I'll try to weigh it out again soon.
