How much does my car weigh?
I have a 93' base model. Here are the items I've removed: both cats, ps, cruise control, air pump, ac compressor, ac condensor, spare tire and tools, stock air box, windshield wipers, and trunk divider.

Find a drag strip with a scale and weight it. Last summer my base with only a SSDP was 2925Lbs. with me in it (155Lbs) and about 5 gallons of gas.

I just had my car corner balanced and it came up at 2805 with 1/4 tank of gas. I still have all the A/C stuff and cat so I would guess your car would be like 2760.
