My '95 GTS-t manual weighs 1,380kg apparently according to the shipping company (they weighed it).

I had a R32 GTSt weighed by shipping company, it was 1250kg, but when I took it in to get it weighed (with another 40L of fuel) on a weighbridge it was 1340kg or so, so its slightly low. (Btw, thats without me in car)

ahhhhh get a 180sx =) i reckon they are better than the s14's

and have better handling then them =)

dont like the look of the 200sx =)

and skylines theres soo many around like afew of you guys said =)

what is going on????

180sx would be a 2nd car

just on your point of seeing too many skylines around, i usually see heaps of them when im in convoy but besides that I *rarely* see them on the roads however, I'll see a million S15's though

? I got mine weighed, stock with half a tank of fuel when i got my

car and it was 1350kg.. Had to do this for rego.

[200sx]

i guess im abit biased but i would choose the s14 for performance as out of the factory (although the R33 may have better figures on paper) I think the 200sx is quicker than an r33. Im sure theres going to be some debate over this but I will leave that to you guys. I would choose the skyline for its roominess though as the s14 backseats cannot fit 2 people comfortably. Looks-wise both look just as good as each other in my opinion but other reasons why i would choose the s14 is for the fuel efficiency and insurance. Alot of power for less fuel

These forums are promoting Skylines too much! /me conveniently forgets the point that he's probably the newest Skyline owner on the forum.

what's the diff between kerb weight and gross weight?

[hitnrun]

curb weight is usually with half tank of fuel, no passengers and no luggage. Basically empty street weight.

Gross weight can either be the car totally empty with no fuel oil or any options/accessories, but can sometime be total weight WITH fuel oil, 2-3 passengers etc.

go with the curb weight, it's what most magazines quote
