Anywhere between 4-8k depending on condition.

Tony, any idea on base weight at all? are the around 1250kg or so?

If I was to find a forged one, with lets say 350bhp or so......what mods am I looking at for 500hp etc......new tubby, injectors etc...?

1270kg i think, slightly heavier than a uk car because of the likes of a/c etc.
Handling should be improved due to the DCCD and stiffer STI suspension
