Sorry for the noob question - I'm looking to reduce the weight of my DC2R, and i don't have access to a set of scales. Would anyone know roughly how much a single recaro sr3 weighs?

Cheers

15kg roughly including rails, same weight as normal seats, from what I remember reading a while ago, If you want to reduce weight strip it first, depends on how serious you are, then look at a fixed bucket seat

If you want to reduce weight... you could probably get non reclinable bucket seats with some CF or Kevlar backing.

Exact weight of each recaro sr3 is 20kg. (20 x 2 seats = 40kgs total)

I know because I weighed them myself. :)

for me, net weight saving from swapping to one piece bucket + heavy Wisteria rail is about 7kg..
