Info gathered on the US sites show the range varies from 877 (88' base model) to 1040 (91 top of the line)
The information on Australian sites show our model at 877kg, which might be right for the base model, but not the GL.
The US base model had DPFI as opposed to our PMGCARB.
So at this stage that puts my stripped ED between 777 and 940 which is still a massive variable. If I had to guess, I'd estimate that its around 850-860 at the moment.
Not as lght as most people migh think, but I'm being realistic. I plan on weighing it once I get it mobile again, but there will be added extras such as EFI.
A manual 90-91 model ED6 GL is listed as weighing 900kg, automatic is listed as 921. Air con is not listed as standard equipment, so those figures are sans A/C. Expect the 88-89's to be slightly lighter, and the couple of DX's sold in late 87, early 88 without p/w, p/m or p/s would be lighter again.
Reference from a March '91 ED6 sales brochure.
If thats accurate, then I'm already in the low 800's, maybe 810-820ish. Good news allround!
iirc, the ED3 is the lightest out of the aussie ED3 / ED6 / ED9 / EE3 family.
Nope. Sedan is heavier than hatch.Quote:

The Jdm models are a little lighter because they didn't have side intrusion bars and had plastic instead of glass headlights
