This page shows you all the R33 models: http://english.auto.vl.ru/catalog/nissan/skyline/1995_1/

Sedan: http://english.auto.vl.ru/catalog/nissan/s...e/1995_1/21701/ - 1390kg

Coupe: http://english.auto.vl.ru/catalog/nissan/s...e/1995_1/21697/ - 1370kg

These are for the manual transmissions. 20kg difference doesn't seem too bad!

awesome link cheers.

yeah i would hav thought the sedan would be more then 20kg heavier. :S

also interesting to see a c33 laurel is nearly 100kg heavier and a ca s13 is only 120kg lighter. an rb25 powered s13 would weigh in less then 100kg heavier then a r33 sedan, not much diference at all.

No probs. I think the Skyline was sort of designed from the outset to be a sedan and the coupe is basically the same thing but with 2 less doors! The coupes certainly don't look like a typical coupe shape with a tapered roof and hatch, etc.

The Skyline seems to be a fairly light car for what it is, by today's standards at least. It would probably be 1600kg once you add all of today's luxury/safety features... I think the V35 is 1540kg and that has an aluminium alloy engine, right? If that was cast iron like the RB25, I think it would be up around 1600kg...
