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?

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?

Who knows eh. All I can say is that its a commercial one used by farms/truckers and gets inspected/calibrated regularly. The people who run it reckon its spot on accurate although I believe it rounds to 10Kg.
The evo came out at 1340Kg with 14l of oil and a full fuel tank. Full cage but lightened/stripped body. Probably about right. |

Do you know what the Simpson scales said when you had your intrax fitted?
