Lardy!

Mine was 1420 with 2/3 tank fuel, Aps and intrax but full oem interior, radio, aircon, etc so am surprised yours is so heavy? How much did the cage weigh?

karbonkid · 22-02-2011, 07:28 PM

Jeez! that is surprising.
Mine is almost identical but a good few KG off that.

Rutkowski · 22-02-2011, 07:36 PM

997 GT3 RS - 1375kg

996 GT3 RS - 1350kg
996 GT3 - 1380kg

As far as I am aware these are the weights and although you ask for the 997's weight it is probably fairer to compare the 996 as they were produced in the same era.

So are we to assume these are also the weights by the book and not accurate when it comes to actually weighing the car? Be interested to know acutal weight of one on the scales like the RS with a cage etc

My CSL with cage + over half tank was c/weighted at 1385kg and more has been shed since.

Indeed! Mine was 1425kg with 1/2 tank when it was totally standard.

Cage made from lead?

titan · 23-02-2011, 01:27 AM

Also remembered I have a supersprint full system with the lightweight back box.

The cage is a safety devices bolt in job. So its no T45 svelte, but its rear only, I'd be surprised if it was more than 50kg.

I reckon everyone is using generous weighbridges and dynos ;-)

Mine and Nathans are corner weighted at Simpson Motorsport on a fairly regular basis. Are you sure your local weighbridge works OK?
