Please post curb weight.

I might consider one for a project for autox next year.

And I miss the trunk space in the FC (I used to have a 86 SE) for grocery runs.

What the most desirable color if I want to ensure a higher probability of resale?

Also, let me know what kinda prices I should expect.

 

BTW, post ur pics of black FC with black rims.

I wanna see what the ROBINmobile would look like.

 

most of them are black, red. White is a rarer color, so id try to find white

 

I assume you meant FC. Damn arrogant FD owners always thinkin about FD's. Even when posting about FC's he still cant get his FD out of his head.

Just kidding man.

 

Integra's is around 2,400 lbs.....some have been around 2,200 in race trime.

So you can get any model down in weight, as for stock

What Dan says below

 

86-87 base model. 4 lug, no sunroof, no power options, manual steering, (AC?)

I think they were around 2600-2625lbs but I could be wrong.

Prices in the bay area? $500 to usually no more than $2000.

 

i got mine down to 2400lb and it still has the int.

 

GTUs is the lightest, I think. Its kerb was something like 2625, something in that area. That's also where the 86-87 base models started. So find a base model, swap out the hood, and you've got a light car.

 

Yeah, regression is tough to swallow.

GTUs is definitely heavier than 2625lbs. They are not the lightest FC's but the lightest S5.

 

Black on Black.....

mine is all stock and heavy.... bitches lol

 

ok so its gunmetal on gunmetal, close enough

 

di d u actually take that to a weight station or is this "rice" math?

 

if I was going to get a Honda/Integra I would look at a 88-90 CRX Si. I really love that car when my buddy let me drive his back in high school.

****** felt lighter than my 86SE with alluminum hood.

But the Honda/Acuras just feel more flimsy (chassis-wise) than a Mazda for some reason.

 

the FWD maybe? I say go with a GSL-SE, lightweight with a 13b.

 

Even GSL-SE's were near or around 2600lbs. But they are way more fun to drive than FC's.

 

Naw, I'll pass on that solid axle crap.

if I wanted that i'd be looking at Rustanks.

'87 sport is the car you want, the lightest WITH the better brakes/suspension, and an aero package that's actually functional. Once you bother converting a base to have the 4pot brakes/etc, it's back up to the weight of a sport.

 

that sounds rare since I never heard of the 87 sprt.

 

Just get one with manual everything and no sunroof. If it has ac and ps, take it out, if not then thats good.

Then proceed to ripping out anything and everything you can or are willing too.

I've taken out 200 lbs worth of stuff and I still have my interior AND a steal hood. If I got an aluminum or cf hood that's another 30 lbs off. I could still get a lightweight battery too, lighter wheels, etc. There's a lot more that could be done while still looking like nothing has been (except under the hood )

 

My '86 base w/ light weight package was 2400lbs on the dump scale.

I had removed 3 cats, the AC, a few brackets and went to cheap race seats. That is about it.

There was a lot more weight that could have been dropped from the stock catback, battery, interior, etc...

 

wow, start giving Elise **** with better weight balance.

 

Heres mine.

 

they made them in 86 too...
