Default Guess my weight!

Sorry... Not a thread about fat chicks!

Does anyone know what an '03 STI should weigh? I believe it should be roughly around the 1400kg mark, but I've found figures that vary from as little as 1295kg right up to 1570kg.

It's a JDM and didn't come with the manual, or I'd just look in there!

Yes, thank you for that Dave!

The internet search approach returns a different weight everywhere you look, I was wondering if someone who works in a garage or knows the cars inside out might have a more reliable figure?

2003 blob's = 1440 kg
spec C ltd = 1370
spec C = 1350
spec C (real competition/ 16 inch wheels) = 1320 kg


I got my Spec C LTD down to 1340 kgs by having a Miltek exhaust system and emptying the i/c water tank , and hardly any fuel- lol. Local weigh bridge. My brothers 98 classic came in at 1240kg, but he has no air con and he took out the rear seats and spare wheel which i thought was cheating!!

It should give the gross weight on the V5 for your car, mine say's 1375kg, yours will say somewhat more than that (about 85kg more).
