FT86 weight speculation anyone? - Page 4 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Just remember, there is going to be a lot of things you can remove to drop a lot of weight. If this gets a turbo, It will be one hell of a track car.

If it comes in at 2800, I could see a track car down to around 2300.

My prediction is around 1200kg wet, but hopefully a little less than that. Around 1050kg would be win. SW20 was surprisingly light, although it was missing 2 seats. :P

IDK why, but I kinda wanna see TRD Supercharger on this one and Subie's Imp to have Turbo. No reasons, but just my opinion.

so around mid 2600 lbs (if I made miss calculation sorry)?

you can always take out the back seats

the front portion sticking out so much is a tad odd, my yaris is stubbier and it makes for whipping it around corners a breeze. I wonder what is upfront to make it stick out a whole foot more?
room for an intercooler and oil cooler? woot i hope so haha

I'm hoping for around 12:1 power-to-weight ratio for a car that is going to cost about $20000.

I have some if you need to use some. I buy all my vinyl stuff from H&H sign supply online
